Tom Waits - Grapefruit Moon guitar tab
GRAPEFRUIT MOON
Cmaj7 G9 F C F C/Fsharp G9 G7
Grapefruit moon, one star shining, shining down on me
Cmaj7 G9 F C F C/Fsharp G9 G
Heard that tune, and now I'm pining, honey, can't you see?
Am G F C
'Cause every time I hear that melody -
Am G F
Something breaks inside
Cmaj7 G9 F C F C/Fsharp
the grapefruit moon, one star shining, can't turn back
C
the tide
(instr.) C C/D C/E F (repeat)
Never had no destination, could not get across
You became my inspiration, oh but what a cost
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Something breaks inside
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking cigarettes and I strive for purity
And I slip just like the stars into obscurity
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Puts me up a tree
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is all that I can see
Never had no destination, could not get across
You became my inspiration, oh but what a cost
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Something breaks inside
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking cigarettes and I strive for purity
And I slip just like the stars into obscurity
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Puts me up a tree
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is all that I can see
breaks inside,
Cmaj7 G9 F C F F C/Fsharp
the grapefruit moon, one star shining, can't turn back
G13 C
the tide
(piano solo) C C/D C/E F C C/D C/E F
Never had no destination, could not get across
You became my inspiration, oh but what a cost
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Something breaks inside
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is more than I can hide
Now I'm smoking cigarettes and I strive for purity
And I slip just like the stars into obscurity
'Cause every time I hear that melody - Puts me up a tree
And the grapefruit moon, one star shining, is all that I can see
(have worked these chords out myself and am pretty sure they're correct)
