Begging Bowl Blues chords by Codeine Velvet Club

Intro
E, F#, A, B X 6

E         F#
Windy old head
A      B              E              F#
I sang along with the words that she said
A         B
Happy and bad
E               F#
"Where goes the time?"
A            B
She asked me once
        E           F#
Oh and if you don't mind
A            B
Give back my heart when you go

E, F#, A, B x2

E            F#
Begging bowl blues
A                 B
Wrapped round my head
       E          F#   A      B
Like a fistful of news nobody reads
E          F#   A         B
Me and her name I can't recall
      E         F#    A         B
I was never the same after she left me

    E  B            E
And oh I missed her so
B             E           B         E        B
Never thought much of her reason to go
    E     B          E
And well, she cast a spell
B       E         B       E
Under I fell in a useless hello


Bridge.

A, B, E, C#m x3

A, B,

E, F#, A, B x4



E           F#
Useless old day
A           B           E        F#
Wishing the hours would take me away
A          B
Just for a while
E        F#     A           B
Nobody's crook, stealing an answer
   E           F#   A            B          E
Oh why does he look drunk as the day he was born?
B          E     B             E           B
Ragged and torn, lives for the money these days,
       E     B
What a joke
    E     B          E
And once, twice is a sin
B            E           B       E
Couldn't get in with the elegant folk


A, B, E, C#m x4
A, B

E        C#m       A         B
I cannot wait any longer
    E        C#m         A         B
And I cannot claim to be free
     E      C#m            A         B
Whenever it seems like I'm losing
    E            C#m          A         B
The begging bowl blues follow me
    E          C#m            A         B
And she cannot say that she's happy
    E         C#m       A         B
And I cant be sure if I care
E            C#m        A         B
I got wrapped up in the money
        E            C#m            A         B
And the begging bowl blues kept me there


E, C#m, A, B
