Jockey Full Of Bourbon by Tom Waits Chords & Tabs - Maltes

Jockey full of burbon

Tom Waits from the album 'rain dogs'


[Verse]Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgans head
And I've been stepping on the devils tail
Across the stripes of a full moons head
Through the bars of a Cuban jail
Bloody fingers on a purple knife
A flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Come admire the view from upon the top of the mast

[Chorus]DmHey little bird, fly Amaway home
Your E7house is on fire; Amyour children are alone
DmHey little bird, fly Amaway home
Your E7house is on fire; Amyour children are alone

[Verse]Yellow sheets in a Hong Kong bed
Stayzbo horn and a Singerland slide
To the carnival is what she said 
A hundred dollars makes it dark inside
16 men on a deadman's chest
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
Two pair of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of burbon; I can't stand up

[Chorus]DmHey little bird, fly Amaway home
Your E7house is on fire; Amyour children are alone
DmHey little bird, fly Amaway home
Your E7house is on fire; Amyour children are alone

[Verse]AmEdna Millon in a drop dead suit
Dutch pink in a E7downtown train
I'm in the corner in the Ampouring rain
And I've been drinking from a E7broken cup
I'm full of burbon; I Amcan't stand up
