Fall Of Troy chords by Tom Waits

Guitar chords with lyrics

I know it's not exactly right, but it's simple and
   leaves room to work out how to sing the really deep
   notes in the song.

                             FALL OF TROY
                            (Waits/Brennan)
     G

            F
  It's the same with men as with horses and dogs
    C
  Nothing wants to die
    F
  Ethel and james they killed in a game
        G
  With guns too big for their hands
   F
  Just off Saint Charles, in no-man's land
              F
  And you'll have to find your own way home, boys,
          C
  You'll have to find your own way home
        F
  The oldest was Troy, an eighteen year old boy
        C
  Shot dead in march, in a robbery
        F
  His brothers started out, to hell and to ruin
           G
  Troy's killers were never, caught they say
    F
  Young Nick, he just went bad that day
             F
  Now he'll have to find his own way home, boy's,
         C
  He'll have to find his own way home

 C
  Why cook dinner,  why make my bed,  why come home, at all
   Am
  Out the door and through the woods,
             G
  There's a world where nothing grows

        F
  It's hard to say grace, and to sit in the place
               G
  Of someone missing at the table
         F
  Mom's hair sprayed tight and her face in her hands
     G
  Watching T.V. for answers to me
    F
  After all she's only human
              F
  And she's trying to find her own way home, boy's
          C
  She's trying to find her own way home

 Am
