Dead And Lovely
Tom Waits
Another favourite Waits tune hope it makes sense strings and plays fine without a capo but if you are playing along with the song stick the capo on 3 I pick for most of the song but pick + strum the As always any mistakes are mine if I have missed some obvious ones drop me a note and I’ll sort it. if you like it rate it thanks - flatwound - Am = X02210 F = 133211 E = 022100 Dm = XX0231 Bb = X13321 B7 = X21202 All chords relative to Capo DEAD AND LOVELY -**- CAPO 3rd FRET -**- She was a middle class girl She was in over her head A|-2-3-- She thought she could stand up in the deep end He had a bulletproof smile He had money to burn A|-2-3-- She thought she Had the moon In her pocket And now she’s dead.. She’s so dead Forever dead and lovely now I’ve always been told to re-member this Don’t let a fool kiss you Never marry for love He was hard to impress He knew everyone’s secrets A|-2-3--- He wore her On his arm just like jewlery He never gave but he got He kept her on a leash A|-2-3--- He’s not the kind of wheel you fall a-sleep at But now she’s dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now Come closer Look deeper You’re falling fast Just like a Plane on a Stormy sea She made up someone to be She made up somewhere to be from A|-2-3--- This is one business in the world Where theres no problem with that Everything that is left They will only plow under A|-2-3--- Soon everyone you knew Will be gone And now she’s dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now GUITAR SOLO: But now she’s dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now I’ve always been told to re-member this Don’t let a kiss fool ya Never marry for love Everything has it’s price Everything has it’s place A|-2-3--- Whats more romantic than dyin’ in the moonlight Now they are watching the sea Whats lost can never be broken A|-2-3--- Her roots were sweet But they were so shallow And now she’s dead Forever dead Forever dead and lovely now And now she’s dead Forever dead And she’s so dead and lovely now
