Artist: Tom Waits
Capo on 1st fret
Tom sings this ridicously low. If you want to transpose it, you could use this table:
[Em] -> [Am]
[B7] -> [E7]
[Am] -> [Dm]
[E] -> [A]
Did you [Em]hear the news about [B7]Edward?
On the [Em]back of his [Am]head
[B7]he had [Em]another face
[E]Was it a [Am]woman's face
or a young [B7]girl?
They said to [Em]remove it would [Am]kill him
So poor Edward was [B7]doomed
That face could [Em]laugh and[Am] cry
[B7]It was his [Em]devil twin
[E]At night she [Am]spoke to him
Things heard only in [B7]hell
They were [Em]impossible to [Am]separate
Chained together for [B7]life
Finally the [Em]bell tolled his [Am]doom
[B7]He took a [Em]suite of rooms
[E]And hung [Am]himself and her
from the balcony [B7]irons
Some still [Em]believe he was [Am]freed from her
But I knew her too [B7]well
I say she [Em]drove him to [Am]suicide
And took poor Edward to [B7]hell
(It's nice to disolve the dominant ([B7]) with the tonic ([Em]) here at the end)
