Fall Of Troy

Tom Waits

Transposer:

I know it’s not exactly right but it’s simple and   leaves room to work out how to sing the really deep   notes in the song.        Tabbed by     - flatwound -        If you like it... rate it!                             FALL OF TROY                            (Waits/Brennan)                         It’s the same with men as with horses and dogs  Nothing wants to die  Ethel and james they killed in a game  With guns too big for their hands  Just off Saint Charles in no-man’s land  And you’ll have to find your own way home boys  You’ll have to find your own way home  The oldest was Troy an eighteen year old boy  Shot dead in march in a robbery  His brothers started out to hell and to ruin  Troy’s killers were never caught they say  Young Nick he just went bad that day  Now he’ll have to find his own way home boy’s  He’ll have to find his own way home Why cook dinner why make my bed  why come home at all  Out the door and through the woods  There’s a world where nothing grows  It’s hard to say grace and to sit in the place  Of someone missing at the table  Mom’s hair sprayed tight and her face in her hands  Watching T.V. for answers to me  After all she’s only human  And she’s trying to find her own way home boy’s  She’s trying to find her own way home My legs ache my heart is sore the well is full of pennies

La chanson évoque la fragilité de la vie humaine et la douleur causée par la perte. Elle raconte l’histoire tragique de Troy, un jeune homme victime de la violence, tandis que sa mère, dans sa détresse, cherche des réponses et tente de retrouver un semblant de normalité. Le texte met en lumière des thèmes de culpabilité, de ruine, et de la quête de réconfort au milieu du chaos. À travers des images puissantes, l'artiste explore comment chacun doit à un moment ou à un autre naviguer seul vers sa propre rédemption.
