A Sight for Sore Eyes Tom Waits
Another old Waits tune I couldn't find on here, so
worked out a simple version, I'm not 100% about the
lyrics, but it's the best I could hear.
Oh and the Am chord is really just a step up from
G to C
if you like it? please rate it

A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES
A si[C]ght for sore eyes, It's a lo[F]ng time no s[C]ee
Workin' h[C]ard hardly wo[Am]rkin', Hey [Dm]man you know [G]me
[Am] Water un[C]der the bridge, Did ya s[F]ee my new c[C]ar
Well it's bo[C]ught and it's p[Am]aid for, Parked out-s[Dm]ide of the b[G]ar
And hey b[C]arkeep whats keeping you, K[F]eep pouring dr[C]inks
For a[C]ll these pal[Am]ookas, Hey you k[Dm]now what I th[G]inks
[Am] That we to[C]ast to the old days, And Di-M[F]ag-gio t[C]oo
An' old Dry[C]sdales and M[Am]antle, Whitey F[Dm]ord and [G]to y[C]ou[G] [G]
Oh you know the o[C]l' gang ain't around, Every[F]one has left t[C]own
'Cept for Th[C]elma 'n' Gia[Am]rdina, Said they j[Dm]ust might be do[G]wn
[Am] Oh half dr[C]unk all the time, An' I'm a[F]ll drunk the r[C]est
Mo[C]nks still the cha[Am]mpion, Oh but [Dm]I am t[G]he b[C]est[G]
And hey b[C]arkeep whats keeping you, K[F]eep pouring dr[C]inks
For a[C]ll these pal[Am]ookas, Hey you k[Dm]now what I th[G]inks
[Am] That we to[C]ast to the old days, And Di-M[F]ag-gio t[C]oo
An' old Dry[C]sdales and M[Am]antle, Whitey F[Dm]ord and [G]to y[C]ou[G] [G]
Guess you he[C]ard about Nash, He was ki[F]lled in a c[C]rash
Oh that m[C]ust have been [Am]two, Or three y[Dm]ears ago n[G]ow
[Am] Yeah, he s[C]pun out and he rolled, Hit a te[F]lephone p[C]ole
And d[C]ied with the ra[Am]dio [Dm]on[G]
Flo she's mar[C]ried with a kid, Finally sp[F]lit up with S[C]id
He's up no[C]rth for a ni[Am]ckles worth, For a[Dm]rmed ro[G]bbery
[Am] And I'll p[C]lay you some pinball, No you a[F]in't got a ch[C]ance
Then [C]go on o[Am]ver and, [Dm]Ask her to da[G]nce
And hey b[C]arkeep whats keeping you, K[F]eep pouring dr[C]inks
For a[C]ll these pa[Am]lookas, Hey you [Dm]know what I th[G]inks
[Am] That we t[C]oast to the old days, And Di-M[F]ag-gio t[C]oo
An' old Dry[C]sdales and M[Am]antle, Whitey F[Dm]ord and [G]to y[C]ou-oo-[C]o
