KRIS KRISTOFFERSON - Late John Garfield Blues guitar chord

Late John Garfield Blues--Kris Kristofferson

written by John Prine

From the album "Live at the Philharmonic"

I've added a lot of base-notes and such...they aren't necessary, they just add flavor

when you're playin' by your lonesome.

INTRO: D/A D (4x)

D/A D

Black faces pressed against the glass

G G/B D/A

Where the wind had leaned its weight

D

Wind blown scars and top-down cars

E E7 A

All share one western trait

G G/B D/A

Sadness leaks through tear-stained cheeks

F#m G*

From winos to dime store jews

D/A

Probably don't know they gave me

A A7 D/A

These late John Garfield blues

Midnight fell on Franklin St.

And the lamp bulbs all was broke

For the life of me I could not see

But I heard a brand new joke

2 men were standing on a bridge

One jumped and screamed you lose

Just left the odd man holding

These late John Garfield blues

I'm going away to the last resort

In a week or two real soon

Where the fish don't bite but once a night

In the moonlight of the moon

The horses scream their nightmares dreams

And the dead men all wear shoes

'Cause everybody's dancing

These late John Garfieldfield blues
