Hometown Waltz
Rufus Wainwright
____________________ / Rufus Wainwright / I think this song is about how "travel out to find / Hometown Waltz / your way home" is a waste of time as there’s nothing / Want Two / special to find out there. So eventually you’ll end /____________________/ back home with the frustration of that this greener grass isn’t to be found anywhere. I’ve tried my best to arrange the chords so an acoustic guitar is able to stand alone but since they really aren’t well-fit making sound good. Remember to accentuate/intone the bass notes as they’re very important for making it sound good. _E_A_D_G_B_E_ Intro: | | | | | | | | 3/4 C | x 3 2 0 1 0 | G7/d | x x 0 0 0 1 | Em | x x 2 0 0 0 | F/c | x 3 3 2 1 1 | F#dim6 | 2 3 4 x 4 x | | | | | E7/g# | 4 x 2 1 0 0 | | | 1st Verse: Am | x 0 2 2 1 0 | (the chords in the verses are same as in the Intro) | | C7/g | 3 x 2 3 1 0 | The drummers and jugglers in Montre-al Bb/d | x 5 3 3 3 x | Don’t even exist at all C/e | x 7 5 5 5 x | So I’m tearing up these tarot cards and Ve-ne -tian clowns | | Antique shops and alcoholic homo-sexu-als F | 1 3 3 2 1 1 | | | G | 3 x 0 0 0 3 | | | 2nd Verse: G/b | x 2 0 0 0 3 | You may ask why I want to torch my home town Csus4 | x 3 3 0 1 1 | Partly it’s bitterness and hopping around A7sus4 | x 0 2 0 3 0 | And ’round again on Ontario street look-ing up Am7 | x 0 2 0 1 0 | Maybe I’ll catch him on his way to the show Gsus4/d | x x 0 5 3 1 | | | G7 | x x 5 4 6 3 | Interlude: | | ...show | | Gb9 | x x 5 4 6 4 | G#maj7 | x x 6 5 4 3 | 2/4 2/4 3/4 | | | | Fm | x x 3 5 6 4 | G/d | x x 0 0 0 3 | | | G7 | 3 2 0 0 0 1 | 3rd Verse: |_|_|_|_|_|_|_| You travel the world and find all the answers Ev’rything operates on the unattainable And then you hear your mother laugh attached to the phone Could have walked around the block ’cause all roads lead to home Bridge: Say____ will you ever ever ever know?
