Tom Waits - "Singapore" chords
Start Jamming...
We sailed tonight from Singapore, where all is mad as Paris is.
I followed for a [F#] tiny port, took off to the [E] land of Nantes,
drank with all the Chinamen, walked the [B] sewers of Paris,
[A] I danced [Bm] along the coloured wind, [F#] tangled from a rope of sand.
[G] You must [F#] say goodbye to [C] me.
We sailed [F#] tonight from Singapore, known for my sleep while you're ashore,
lost your heart and hope to die [B] when you hear [G] the children cry,
[Bm] like marrow bone and cleaver [E] tubes, while making feet for [F#] children's shoes.
Through the alley, back from hell, when you hear [F] that staple bell,
[F#] you must say goodbye [B] to me.
[E] Wiping down with [F#] gasoline, [E] till his arms are hard in [Em] me,
from now on, boy, [Bm] this iron boat's your home.
[D]
So heave away, boys.
[C#]
[G] We sailed tonight from Singapore, [B] take [C] your blankets from the floor,
wash your [F#] mouth out by the door, the whole town's [Bm] made of iron ore.
Every [G] weakness turns to steam, [D] they all become Italian [F#] dreams.
Fill your pockets up with earth, get yourself a dollar's worth. Away, boys.
Away, boys.
Heave [Bm] away.
[B] The captain is [D] a one-armed dwarf, [E] he's throwing dice [Bm] along [C] the wharf.
In the land of [G] the blind, the one-eyed [A] man is king.
So [C#] take this ring.
[G] We sailed [F#] tonight from [D#] Singapore, where all is mad as Hatter's Hill.
[A] I've fallen [F#] for a tawny moor, [F#] took off to the [E] land of Nod,
[B] drank with all the China men who walked the shores of [G] Paris,
drank [F#m] along on coloured wine, [N] I dangled from [F#] a rope of sand.
You must say goodbye to me.
[A] [F#]
[N]
