Alice Chords by Tom Waits

[Fm] _ It's [Bbm] dreamy weather _ [C] we're on [Fm] you waved your crooked wand
[F] _
_ _ [Bbm] Along a nicely pond _
With the [C] frozen moon _ _
Murder [Fm] of silhouette
[Bbm] _ _
crows
I saw and the [C] tears on my [G] face
[C] And [Bbm] the skates on the pond
_ [C] _ _ They spell [Fm] Alice _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
[E] Disappearing your name
_ [Fm] But you must wait for me
[Ab] _ [Bb] Somewhere [Bbm] across the sea _
_ _ There's the wreck [C] of a ship
[Db] _ _
[C] _ Your hair [Fm] is like meadow grass _
[Bbm] on the tide
And the raindrops [C] on my window
[Bb] _ In the ice in [Db] my dream
[Bbm] _ [C] Baby _ all [Bbm] I can think of
_ [C] _ _ [Cm] Is [Fm] Alice _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ Rhythmic [E] [C] arithmetic _
[Fm] Turn the hands back on
[Ab] [Bbm] How _ does the ocean [C] rock [Cm] the boat _
[Fm] how did the razor [F] find my float
[Bbm] _ The only [C] strings that hold me [Bbm] here are [Db] tangled around [E] the pier
[Eb] _ [C] _ _ _ And so [Bbm] a secret [Ab] kiss
[C] _ _ [Gm] Brings madness [Fm] with the bliss
_ [Cm] And _ [Db] I will think of this
_ When I'm dead [C] in my _ _ [Ab] [C] grave
Set me [Fm] adrift and I'm _ [Bbm] lost
[Bb] Over [Bbm] there _ and I [C] must be insane _ [Ab]
[C] to _ go [Bbm] skating on your name _
[C] _ _ And by [Bbm] tracing it
I _
[C] _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] fell through the _ [E] ice _ [C] _ _ [Fm] Valor _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
[Ab] _ [C] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bbm] _
[C] _ [Db] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ And
So [Db] secret _ kiss
[C] _ Brings [Fm] madness with this [Db] [F] and _ [Ab] _ _
[Bbm] _ _ I will think of this when I'm dead [C] in my grave
_ _ Set me [Fm] adrift and I'm [Bbm] lost
_ Over there and I must be [E] insane
[C] _
To go skating [Db] on your _ [Eb] name
[C] And by [Bbm] tracing it twice [C] I _ _ [Bbm] fell [Fm] through the [Bbm] [C] ice
_ _ _ [E] _ _ Valor
_ [Fm] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
