Burma Shave Tom Waits akordy

Lic^Dm7orice tat^C7too, turned a gu^Dm7n metal blue ^C7

^Dm7Scrawled acros^C7s the shou^Fm7lders of a d^E♭ying^G♯ town ^C7

^Dm7The one eyed ja^C7cks, across the rail^Dm7road tra^C7cks

And the ^Dm7scar ^C7on its ^Fm7belly p^E♭ulled a s^G♯tranger passing throu^C7gh

He was a juve^Dm7nile delinqu^C7ent, never le^Dm7arned how to be^C7have

But the cop^B♭m7s would never think to look

In B^C7urma Sha^Dm7ve

And the roa^B♭m7d was like a ribbon^C7, and the m^Dm7oon was like a b^C7one

He d^Dm7idn't s^C7eem to ^Fm7be like ^E♭any g^G♯uy she'd ever know^C7n

He kinda lo^Dm7oked like Farley Gr^C7ainger, with his ^Dm7hair slicked ^C7back

She says I'm a su^Dm7cker f^C7or a ^Fm7fella ^E♭in a c^G♯owboy h^C7at

^Dm7How far are you goi^C7ng

He said depe^Dm7nds on w^B♭m7hat you me^C7an

He says I'm o^B♭m7nly stop in ' here to get some gasolin^C7e

I g^Dm7uess I'm going th^C7ataway just as lo^Dm7ng as it's pave^C7d

And I ^B♭m7guess you'd say I'm on my way

To b^C7urma sha^Dm7ve

And with her kn^B♭m7ees up on the glove co^C7mpartment, ^Dm7took out her bar^C7rettes

And her h^Dm7air spilled ^Cout like ro^Fm7ot beer

And she po^G♯pped her gum and ^C7arched her back

Hell Ma^Dm7rysville ain't not^C7hing , but a w^Dm7ide spot in the ^C7road

Some night my h^B♭m7eart pounds just like thunder I don't know w^C7hy it don't explode

^Dm7Cause everyone in this st^C7inking town, has got o^Dm7ne foot in the gr^C7ave

And I'd ra^B♭m7ther take my chances

Out in Bu^C7rma shave^Dm7

^Dm7Presley's what I go^C7 by, why d^Dm7on't you change the st^C7ation

Count the g^Dm7rain ^Celev^Fm7ators in the r^G♯earview m^C7irror

Mister anyw^Dm7here you po^C7int this thing, has got to b^Dm7eat the hell out of the s^C7ting

^Dm7Of going to ^C♯bed with ev^C7ery dream that ^Dm7dies here every mor^C7nin,

And so^B♭m7 drill me a ^C7hole

With a ^Dm7barber pole

I'm j^B♭m7umping my par^C7ole just like a ^Dm7fugitive ton^C7ight

Why don't you ^B♭m7have another sw^C7ig, and pass that ^Dm7car if you're so b^C7rave

I wanna get ^B♭m7there before the sun comes up in

^C7Burma sha^Dm7ve

And the s^Dm7pider w^Ceb c^Fm7rack a^E♭nd the ^G♯mustang sc^C7reamed

^Dm7Smoke f^Crom the t^Fm7ires a^E♭nd the t^G♯wisted mac^C7hine

Just a ni^Dm7ckel's worth of dr^C7eams and every w^Dm7ishbone that they s^C7aved

Lie s^B♭m7windled from them on the way to

^C7Burma hav^Dm7e

And the ^B♭m7sun hit the d^C7errick and c^Dm7ast a bat wing s^C7hadow

^B♭m7Up against the ^C7car door on the s^Dm7hotgun side ^C7

And when they p^B♭m7ulled her from the wre^C7ck you know she

^Dm7Still had on her s^C7hades

They say that d^B♭m7reams are growing wild just this side of

^C7Burma Shav^Dm7e
