Tom Waits - Cold Cold Ground

D bm

Crest fallen sidekick in an old cafe

D bm

never slept with a dream before he had to go away

D bm

there's a bell in the tower uncle Ray bought a round

G

never worry 'bout the army

A7 A7sus4 D

in the cold cold ground

bm

cold cold ground

D

cold cold ground

bm

cold cold ground

Now don't be a cry baby when there's wood in the shed

there's a bird in the chimeny and a stone in my bed

when the road's washed out they pass a bottle around

and waits in the arms

of the cold cold . . .

there's a ribbon in the willow and a tire swing rope

and a briar patch of berries takin' over the slope

the cat'll sleep in the mailbox and we'll never go to town

till we bury every dream

in the cold cold . . .

Gimme a Winchester rifle and a whole box of shells

blow the roof of the goat barn let it roll down the hill

the piano is firewood Times Square is a dream

I find we lay down together

in the cold cold . .

Call the cops on the Breadloves bring a bible and a rope

and a whole box of rebel and a bar of soap

make a pile of trunk tires

and burn 'em all down bring a dollar with you baby

in the cold cold . . .

Take a weather vane rooster throw rocks at his head

stop talking to the neighbors till we all go dead

beware of my temper and the dog that I found

break all the windows

in the cold cold . . .

On the D's during the cold cold ground theme, do some "touchdowns" on Dsus4

Enjoy!
