Til The Money Runs Out
Tom Waits
Simple Chords and an easy progression but getting the momentum and the timings of the lyrics might take a few listens Enjoy flatwound ’TIL THE MONEY RUNS OUT Check this strange beverage that falls out from the sky Splashin’ Bagdad on the hudson in panther martin’s eyes He’s high and outside wearin’ candy apple red Scarlet gave him twenty seven stitches in his head With a pint of green chartreuse ain’t nothin’ seems right E7 (TACET) You buy the sunday paper on a saturday night Well can’t you hear the thunder Someone stole my watch I sold quart of blood and bought half pint of scotch Some one tell those chinamen on telegraph canyon road When you’re on the bill with the spoon there ain’t no time to unload So bye bye baby Baby bye bye PLAY CHORDS AS A VERSE FOR INSTRUMENTAL Droopy stranger lonely dreamer toy puppy and the prado We’re laughin’ as they piled into Olmos’ El Dorado Jesus whispered eeany meany meany miney moe They’re too proud to duck their heads That’s why they bring it down so low So bye bye baby Baby bye bye The pointed man is smack dab in the middle of july Swingin’ from the rafters in his brand new tie He said I can’t go back to that hotel room All they do is shout But I’ll stay wichew baby till the money runs out So bye bye baby Baby bye bye
