Tom Waits – New Years Eve chords

C's should be emphasized with sus2's and sus4's.
F's could be played as Fmaj7 most of the time
and G's should always be emphasized with a G7 

C – G – C - G

C                                       GThe door was open I was seething
C                                              FYour mother burst in it was freezing
C                                        G             CShe said it looks like it’s trying to rain
C                             GI was lost I felt sea sick
C                                           FYou convinced me that he’d left
C                                               G                     CYou said keep talking but don’t use any names
FI scolded your driver and your brother
                                                                                              CWe are old enough to know how long you’ve been hooked
FAnd we’ve all been through the war
And each time you score
                                                                              C  GSomeone gets hauled and handcuffed and booked

C                                       GIt felt like four in the morning
C                                       FWhat sounded like fire works
C                               G              CTurned out to be just what it was
C                                            GThe stars looked like diamonds
C                                       FThen came the sirens
C                        G               CAnd everyone started to cuss
FAll the noise was disturbing
And I couldn’t find Irving
                                                            CIt was like two stations on at the same time
FAnd then I hid your car keys
And I made black coffee
                                                       C   GAnd I dumped out the rest of the rum

C                                       GNick and Socorro broke up
C                                          FAnd Candice wouldn’t shut up
C                  G                   CFin he recorded the whole thing

C                                       GRay he said damn you
C                                               FAnd someone broke my camera
CAnd it was New Years
G                               CAnd we all started to sing

F                          C                  G              C                           FShould auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind
F                           C                  G           Am              F               CShould auld acquaintance be forgot for the sake of auld lang syne

FI was leaving in the morning with Charles for Las Vegas
                                              CAnd I didn’t plan to come back
FI had only a few things
Two hundred dollars
                                                           C           GAnd my records in a brown paper sack

C                       GI ran out on Sheila
C                              FEverything’s in storage
C                                   G                               CCalvin’s right I should go back to driving truck

F                          C                  G              C                           FShould auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind
F                           C                  G           Am              F               CShould auld acquaintance be forgot for the sake of auld lang syne
