Kristofferson Kris - Late John Garfield Blues guitar tab

performed by Kris Kristofferson.

Verse 1:

D

Black faces pressed against the glass

G D

Where the wind leaned its weight

Wind blows scars and top down cars

E A

All share one western trait

G D

Sadness leaks through tear stained cheeks

F#m G

From winos to dime store Jews

D

Probably don't know they gave me

A7 D

These late John Garfield blues

Verse 2:

D

Midnight fell on Franklin street

G D

The lamp bulbs's always broke

For the life of me i could not see

E A

But i heard a brand new joke

G D

Two man were standing on a bridge

F#m G

One jumped and screamed you lose

D

Just left the odd man holding

A7 D

These late John Garfield blues

Verse 3:

D

I'm going away to the last resort

G D

In a week or two real soon

Where the fish don't bite but once a night

E A

In the dark light of the moon

G D

Horses scream their nightmare dreams

F#m G

And the dead men all wear shoes

D

'Cause everybody's dancing

A7 D

These late John Garfield blues
