Buzz Fledderjohn chords by Tom Waits

Chords with lyrics

OK, I know this isn't a faithful exact copy of the song,
  but if you are playing on an acoustic, on your own,
  this is a simplistic, pared down version that's quite soothing
  to play.
      As always any mistakes are mine, if you see any howlers
      let me know and I'll sort it.
        If you like it  RATE IT
                     - flatwound -

 I stood on the roof, of Stuart's old dodge

 To get a better look at the Fledderjohn's lodge

 Bait shop, Pistols and ammo too

 Nothing but books about World War Two

 Rottweiler, Doberman, Pinkerton guard

 I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard


 I ain't allowed, No, I ain't allowed

 I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard


 I seen a python swallow a doberman whole

 Piranha swimming in a mixing bowl

 Papers full of stabbings, The sky is full of crows

 She's singing in Italian, While she's hanging out her clothes

 Carp in the bathtub, And it's raining real hard

 I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard


 I ain't allowed, No, I ain't allowed

 I ain't allowed in Buzz Fledderjohn's yard


 Well a sailor's ringing doorbells, Sinners in the pew

 The weather vane is squeaking to the west

 I seen the cliffs of Dover and the deepest ocean blue

 The one thing in the world I can recommend to you


 'Cause I ain't allowed,  No, I ain't allowed

 No, I ain't allowed, In Buzz Fledderjohn's yard
