Master of Disaster John Hiatt
MASTER OF DISASTER
Capo at the second fret
Verse 1:
[C]Close one [G]there
[D]Choking in clean [Am]underwear
[C]Bleeding t[G]ongue
[D]Eight ball poundi[Am]ng in my lungs
[C]Ship to sh[G]ore
[D]I can't see the c[Am]oastline anymore
[C]I shouldn'[G]t be here
[D]I thought I made [Am]that loud and clear
(Chorus)
[C]But the master of[G] disaster Gets t[D]angled in his [Am]telecaster
[C]He can't play it [G]any faster W[D]hen he plays the b[Am]lues
[C]When he had the heart to a[G]sk her And e[D]very note just s[Am]hook the plaster
[C]Now he's just a m[G]ean old bastard [D]When he plays the [Am]blues
Verse 2:
China town
Chasing that old dragon down
Madam Wong's
We play the blues with the curtains drawn
Sidewalks of white
While the LA sun beat out the night
Pounding brain
My last transmission down the drain
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
There's a debt I owe
I'll never pay before I go
So I sing the blues
Hand me down my walking shoes
You're in my heart
Though we may be miles apart
There's my point
I'll see you in another joint
(Chorus)
