Who Are You

Tom Waits

Text File

Tune down 1/2 step

INTRO: E

E
They're lining up
        A               E
To mad dog your tilta whirl
E
3 shots for a dollar Win a real live doll
        C#m            B
All the lies that you tell
    A              E
I believed them so well. Take them back
                A          E
Take them back to your red house
For that fearful leap into the dark
C#m      B
I did my time
        A            B
In the jail of your arms
    C#m               B
Now Ophelia wants to know
       A          B
Where she should turn
           E
Tell me...what did you do
              A           E
What did you do the last time?


(The chords are the same the whole song)


Why don't you do that
Go on ahead and take this the wrong way
Time's not your friend
Do you cry. Do you pray
Do you wish them away
Are you still leaving nothing
But bones in the way
Did you bury the carnival
Lions and all
Excuse me while I sharpen my nails
And just who are you this time?
You look rather tired
(Who drinks from your shoe)
Are you pretending to love
Well I hear that it pays well
How do your pistol and your Bible and your
Sleeping pills go?
Are you still jumping out of windows in expensive clothes?
Well I fell in love
With your sailor's mouth and your wounded eyes
You better get down on the floor
Don't you know this is war
         A       B        E
Tell me who are you this time?
         A       B        E
Tell me who are you this time?
