Tom Waits - Walk Away tab

(by Olof)

Listen to the song for timing

Am Em in all the verses


             Am        Em       Am       Em
Dot King was whittled from the bone of Cain
Am                                  Em
with a little drop of poison in the red, red blood
Am       Em         Am           Em
She need a way to turn around the bend
Am
She said I want to walk away and start over again.

          Am     Em     Am     Em
There are things I've done I can't erase
Am                                Em
I want to look in the mirror, see another face
       Am    Em    Am     Em
I said never would I do it again
Am
I want to walk away, start over again.

Dm      Am
No more rain
Em      Am
No more roses
Dm    Am   C                    Em
On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond.


There is a widower in every place

There is a heart that's beating in every page

The beginning of it starts at the end

When it's time to walk away and start over again.


Weather is murder at a hundred and three

William Ray shot Corabell Lee

A yellow dog knows when he has sinned

You want to walk away and start over again.


Dm      Am
No more rain
Em      Am
No more roses
Dm    Am   C                    Em
On my way, shake my thirst in a cool, cool pond.



Cooper told Maui the whole block is gone

They're dying for jewelry, money, and clothes

I always get out of the trouble I'm in

I want to walk away, start over again.



I left my bible by the side of the road

Carve my initials in an old dead tree

I'm going away but I'm going to be back when

It's time to walk away and start over again.
