This is one of my favorite songs by Tom Waits.
It sounds really beautiful with a not as raspy voice
sings it (no offense Tom). It is pretty simple. Standard
tuning. If you want the right key put a capo on the first
fret. You need to have a real low voice to match his key.
I usually end up putting a capo on the second or third
fret so I can reach the lower notes.Also, it takes a
while to get used to his rhythm and sound in the song.
But anyways, here is the chords if you don't already
know them:

C:  x32010
F:  xx3211
G:  320003
E:  022100
Am: x02210
C/B:x20010
C7  x32310
Fm: x33111

Are these days forever and always?

                 C
And if we are to die tonight

Is there a moonlight up ahead?

Is there a moonlight up ahead?

On a flower's grave
