It's a basic sort of I-IV-V in E kinda deal, but the bassline (which I guess could be
walking) is a bit funny.

Chord one (E):      Four (A):         Five (B):
G|-----------------|-----2-2-0-0-----|------4-4-2-2-----|
D|-----2-2-0-0-----|-------------2-2-|--------------4-4-|
A|-------------2-2-|-0-0-------------|-2-2--------------|
E|-0-0-------------|-----------------|------------------|

Sometimes the rhythm swings a bit (Tom Waits has never been a fan of tightness, at least
in his music, can't speak for the bedroom) so maybe the first two notes are 3 of the
or something like that. Because the riff for chord one ends on the first not for the 
for chord three you might wanna stick a sly grace note in there, probably to the open A.
a ridiculous number of ways you could play that (like doing all of the first and second 
on their respective strings, Hysteria style) so mess around.

I
Check this strange beverage that falls out from the sky,

Splashin' Bagdhad on the hudson in Panther Martin's eyes,
IV
He's high and outside wearin' candy apple red,
I
Scarlet gave him twenty seven stitches in his head,
V
With a pint of green chartruse ain't nothin' seems right,
           N.C.
You buy the Sunday paper on a Saturday night.

Just repeat like that. Listen to the track and I'm sure you won't have a problem
it.
