Downtown Train chords by Tom Waits

Guitar chords with lyrics

Someone wanted "Downtown Train" by Tom Waits.  I don't know the Waits
version, but if it has the same chords as the MCC version, here it is.
If it doesn't, then at least maybe the MCC fans will like this. :)


DOWNTOWN TRAIN (by Tom Waits; recorded by Mary-Chapin Carpenter)
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is half a measure.]
[Try using C(9) instead of C sometimes, and Dsus instead of D; I'm
 not sure _exactly_ which chords are used.]
