Chords for Tom Waits OL'55 With Story - Lyrics On Description

_ It was about [F] _ _ [F#] the car.
_ _ _ Alright, Beezer, _ _ _ Beezer came over at [G#m] about 2am.
[B] He said, I'm on a date _ and she's only 17 _ and I've got to get her back to Pasadena. _
[Bm] _ _ _ And all I've got [A#m] left on the car is reverse.
_ _ _ [B] _ _
I _ [N] _ _ _ said, how can I help?
_ _ [F#] _ _ _
He said, [D#] I need gas [E] money. _ _
So he _ sold me a couple of jokes.
He said, you can have these jokes and you don't even have to tell folks that they're mine because you paid for [F] them. _
I [B] _ _ [Em] said, that sounds like a good _ deal to [G#m] me. _ _ _
_ [F] Anyway, he drove home _ in reverse on the Pasadena freeway.
_ [F#] _
In the slow lane.
_ [B] _ _ _
_ But I [F] think they should give awards for that [A#m] type of thing.
[F] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [Em] Anyway, _ [B] it was a 55, _ _ _ what was it?
It was a [F] 55 [F#] Caddy.
_ [A#m] _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well my time went so quick, _ [A#m] I went lickin' and _ _ [C#]
splickin'.
[B] Out to [F#] my old _ 55. _ _ _ _ _
As I pulled away slowly, [A#m] _
_ _ _ feeling so lonely.
_ [B] God knows I was feeling [F#m] _ _ [C#] alive.
[F#] _ _ [C#]
And now [F#] the _ _ [A#m] sun's coming _ [B] up.
[D#m] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ I'm riding with that _ [B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [C#] [A#m] freeway cause and [B] trust.
_ [C#] _ [B] _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ Stars beginning to [F#] fade. _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ As [F#] I lead the _ parade. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Just a wishing [D#m] I'd stay a little longer.
_ _ [G#] _ _ Boy don't you _
[D#m] know [F#] the feeling getting stronger.
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
Well [F#] it was six in the morning. _
_ _ _ [C#] Gave me no warning.
_ _ [F#] I [B] had to be [F#]
on my way. _ _ _ _
_ Now there's trucks on the _ [C#m]
Pasadena.
[F] _ [A#m] _ _ Blood's on the flange.
_ [B] I'm on my way home.
[C#] From your _ _ _ place.
And [F#] now the _ _ sun's _ coming _ up. _ _
_ And I'm riding [A#m] with that [F#] _ love. _ _ _
_ _ With the _ _ [A#m] freeway _ cause [B] and trust. _ _
_ _ [C] _ [C#] _ _ Stars [F#] _
beginning to fade. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#] As I lead the parade. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ Just a wishing _ [F#] that [D#m] I'd stay a little _ longer.
_ [G#] _ _ Boy don't you know [F#] the feeling getting stronger. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ My time went so quickly.
[C#] I went licking and spitting.
_ _ _ _ [B] Out and [F#] out to my old 55. _ _
_ _ _ _ As I pulled away _ slowly, _ [G#] _ [A#m] _
feeling so lonely.
_ [B] God knows I was feeling _ _ [F#] _
alive.
_ [C#] _ And now [F#] the _ _ _ [A#m] sun's coming _ [G#m] _ _
[F#] up.

love.
