Poor Edward by Tom Waits Transcribed by Johan Jeppsson Standard tuning Capo on 1st fret Tom sings this ridicously low. If you want to transpose it, you could use this table: Em -> Am B7 -> E7 Am -> Dm E -> A Em (022000@1) B7Did (x21202@1)you hear the news about Edward? Em (022000@1) Am (x02210@1) On the back of his head B7 (x21202@1) Emhe (022000@1)had another face E (022100@1) AmWas (x02210@1)it a woman's face B7or (x21202@1)a young girl? Em (022000@1) AmThey (x02210@1)said to remove it would kill him B7So (x21202@1)poor Edward was doomed Em (022000@1) AmThat (x02210@1)face could laugh and cry B7 (x21202@1) EmIt (022000@1)was his devil twin E (022100@1) AmAt (x02210@1)night she spoke to him B7Things (x21202@1)heard only in hell Em (022000@1) AmThey (x02210@1)were impossible to separate B7Chained (x21202@1)together for life Em (022000@1) Am (x02210@1) Finally the bell tolled his doom B7 (x21202@1) EmHe (022000@1)took a suite of rooms E (022100@1) AmAnd (x02210@1)hung himself and her B7from (x21202@1)the balcony irons Em (022000@1) AmSome (x02210@1)still believe he was freed from her B7But (x21202@1)I knew her too well Em (022000@1) AmI (x02210@1)say she drove him to suicide B7And (x21202@1)took poor Edward to hell (It's nice to disolve the dominant (B7) with the tonic (Em) here at the end)
