Tango Til They're Sore chords by Tom Waits

Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
        Dm
Well ya play that Tarantella
        A#
All the hounds they start to roar
     A
The boys all go to hell
                Dm
And then the Cubans hit the floor

And they drive along the pipeline

      A#
They tango till they're sore
       A
They take apart their nightmares
          Dm
And they leave them by the door
Chorus:
        Gm
Let me fall out the window
        A
With confetti in my hair
 Dm
Deal out jacks or better
       Gm
On a blanket by the stairs
      A
I'll tell you all my secrets
      Dm
But I lie about my past
    A#            A      Dm
So send me off to bed forever more.

Verse 2:
Dm
Make sure they play my theme song
           A#
I guess daisies will have to do
      A
Just get me to New Orleans
            Dm
And paint shadows on the pews

Turn the spit on that pig
         A#
Kick the drum and let me down
          A
Put my clarinet beneath your bed
     Dm
'till I get back in town

Chorus:
        Gm
Let me fall out the window
        A
With confetti in my hair
 Dm
Deal out jacks or better
       Gm
On a blanket by the stairs
      A
I'll tell you all my secrets
      Dm
But I lie about my past
    A#            A      Dm
So send me off to bed forever more.

Verse 3:
  Dm
Make sure she's all in calico
         A#
And the color of a doll
           A
Wave the flag on cadillac day
         Dm
And a skillet on the wall

Cut me a switch,
                A#
And hold your breath, 'till the sun goes down
   A
Write my name on the hood
         Dm
Send me off to another town

Chorus:
        Gm
Let me fall out the window
        A
With confetti in my hair
 Dm
Deal out jacks or better
       Gm
On a blanket by the stairs
      A
I'll tell you all my secrets
      Dm
But I lie about my past
    A#            A      Dm
So send me off to bed forever more
 A#            A      Dm
Send me off to bed forever more
 A#            A      Dm
