▷ LETRA: Ponchos Lament

Letra

Noticed that no-one had posted this great old Waits tune, so here ya ll go

With some basic fill in bass string runs from the G chord up to the B7
and again from the G down to the E chord this sounds pretty passable

If you like it rate it,  * flatwound *

                             PONCHO S LAMENT
                               Tom Waits


   The stairs sound so lonely without you

   I ain t made my bed in a week, Coffee stains on the paper I m writing

   And I m too choked up inside to speak

   Well yes  I know    that our differences   pulled us apart

   Never spoke a word heart to heart,   I m glad that you re gone

   But I wish to the Lord you d come home


Yes I m gla--ad that you re gone,  Got the feeling so strong

I m glad that you re gone,  But I wish to the Lord that you d come home


   Well my guitar still plays your favorite song

   Though the strings have been outta tune for some time

   Every time I play a chord,   I pray out to the Lord

   That you ll quit your honkey-tonk and sing my song


Yes I m gla--ad that you re gone,  Got the feeling so strong

I m glad that you re gone,  But I wish to the Lord that you d come home


   So I ll Throw another log onto the fire,

   And, I ll admit I m a lousy liar

   As the coals die down and flicker, I hear that guitar picker

   Play the song we used to sing so long ago


Yes I m gla--ad glad that you re gone,  Got the feeling so strong

I m glad that you re gone,  But I wish to the Lord you d come home
