Chords
(This is a very simple chord progression, and if you've played a lot of Tom Waits then
will probably seem familiar. Doesn't make it any less fantastic.)
(You may want to change from Am to A7 just before you go into a Dm, and occasionally lead
to the E7 with an Ebdim7 to make it a bit more interesting.)
Am Dot King was whittled from the bone of Cain Am E7 with a little drop of poison in the red, red blood Am Dm She need a way to turn around the bend Dm7 C E7 Am She said I want to walk away and start over again. Am There are things I've done I can't erase Am E7 I want to look in the mirror, see another face Am Dm I said never would I do it again Dm7 C E7 Am I want to walk away, start over again. Dm Am No more rain E7 Am No more roses Dm Am C E7 On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond. Am There is a widower in every place Am E7 There is a heart that's beating in every page Am Dm The beginning of it starts at the end Dm7 C E7 Am When it's time to walk away and start over again. Am Weather is murder at a hundred and three Am E7 William Ray shot Corabell Lee Am Dm A yellow dog knows when he has sinne Dm7 C E7 Am You want to walk away and start over again. Dm Am No more rain E7 Am No more roses Dm Am C E7 On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond. Am Cooper told Maui the whole block is gone Am E7 They're dying for jewelry, money, and clothes Am Dm I always get out of the trouble I'm in Dm7 C E7 Am I want to walk away, start over again. Am I left my bible by the side of the road Am E7 Carve my initials in an old dead tree Am Dm I'm going away but I'm going to be back when Dm7 C E7 Am It's time to walk away and start over again.
