Tom Waits

Transposer:

This song has a capo on the third fret. In order to keep things easy I will name the as if the capo is the nut of the neck. ex)what is considered c minor will now be called minor. There are a few things to remember for playing this song. First)There is an alternating bass line between the root of a chord and the string above ex)for chord alternate the lowest note with . Second)There is walkdown at the end of the intro and chorus that starts with add c add nine isn’t played the usual way. You don’t add your fourth finger to any string instead take off the finger you have on the d string. Making the walkdown look like this e-0--0--0----------------------| b-1--1--1----------------------| g-0--0--2----------------------| d-0--0--2----------------------| a-3--2--0----------------------| e------------------------------| Amin Cadd9 (walkdown) Amin Amin She was a middle class girl She was in over her head Dmin She thought she would                 Amin Stand up in the deep end He had a bullet proof smile He had money to burn Dmin She thought she had the moon Amin In her pocket                    Fmaj But now she’s dead          Amin  Fmaj She’s so dead                  Cadd9(walkdown) Amin Forever dead and lovely now Dmin Bmaj             Dmin I’ve always been told to          Bmaj Remember this...

Cette chanson évoque l'histoire tragique d'une jeune femme qui s'est laissée happer par un monde séduisant mais trompeur. Elle croyait avoir trouvé le bonheur dans une relation superficielle, attirée par les promesses d'un homme insouciant qui ne l'aimait pas réellement. Au fur et à mesure, il devient évident qu'elle est piégée dans une situation où son apparence et son statut sont valorisés, s'éloignant de sa véritable essence. Le ton mélancolique de la chanson reflète non seulement la perte de cette jeune femme, mais aussi une réflexion plus large sur les illusions de l'amour et les sacrifices que l'on fait parfois au nom de celui-ci. Elle aborde des thèmes universels tels que la superficialité et le prix à payer pour l'acceptation, tout en laissant entrevoir une certaine fatalité. Dans un monde où l'authenticité est souvent négligée, l'artiste met en lumière la fragilité de la vie et des choix que l'on fait.
