Warm Beer Cold Women chords by Tom Waits

Chords with lyrics

This is about a um...I'd kinda reached the end of an emotional cul de sac one particular evening um.
It's a strange sort of evening, I ending up at a little fine old place called 'The Three little Pigs'.
Well I was staring at the beer nuts and the swizzle sticks and the,
the three little pigs and I was getting a lot of visual and verbal insubordination
from a double knit character in the corner.

VERSE 1:

Ebmaj9Ebmaj9       Cm7Cm7  F9F9
Warm beer and cold women, I just don't fit in
Bb majorBb
Every Joint I stumbled into tonight
Eb MajorEb             s.n. Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD
That's just how it's been.
     Eb MajorEb     Cm7Cm7
All these double knit strangers with
F9F9        Bb majorBb
Gin and vermouth, and recycled stories
    Eb MajorEb        s.n. Eb MajorEb FF G+G
In the naugahyde booths.

      AbAb    Bb majorBb    EMaj9Emaj9    Cm7Cm7
And the platinum blondes, and tobacco brunettes,
F9F9
I'll just be drinkin to forget you babe,
Bb majorBb    Eb MajorEb         s.n. Eb MajorEb FF G+G
I'll lite another cigarette.
    AbAb       Bb majorBb     EMaj9Emaj9 Cm7Cm7
And the band's playin' something by Tammy Wynette,
F9F9          Bb majorBb  Eb MajorEb   s.n. Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD
And the drinks are on me tonight.

Ebmaj9Ebmaj9          Cm7Cm7        F9F9
all my conversations now I'll just be talkin' about you baby
Bb majorBb                   Eb MajorEb    s.n. Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD
ah, borin' some sailor as I try to get through
     Eb MajorEb     Cm7Cm7
I just want him to listen now
F9F9
I said that's all you have to do
Bb majorBb
he said I'm better off without you
    Eb MajorEb        s.n. Eb MajorEb FF G+G
till I showed him my tattoo

    AbAb    Bb majorBb    EMaj9Emaj9    Cm7Cm7
now the moon's rising ain't got no time to lose
F9F9
time to get down to drinking
Bb majorBb    Eb MajorEb         s.n. Eb MajorEb FF G+G
tell the band to play the blues
    AbAb       Bb majorBb     EMaj9Emaj9 Cm7Cm7
drink's are on me, I'll buy couple rounds
F9F9          Bb majorBb  Eb MajorEb   s.n. Bb majorBb C majorC D MajorD
at the last ditch attempt saloon

Warm beer and cold women, oh I just don't fit in

I'll lite menthol cigarette.
