Tom Trauberts Blues

Intro: (F)/(Gm/F)/(Bb/F)/(F/G)/(G7/C)/(C7) 
(Bb) (F) 
1.: Wasted and wounded, it ain?t what the moon did 
(Gm) (F) (C) (F) 
I?ve got what I paid for now 
(Bb) (F) 
See you tomorrow, hey Frank, can I borrow 
(G) (C) 
(A) couple of bucks from you to go 
(F) (C) (F) (Gm) (F) 
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda, you?ll go waltzing 
(Gm) (C) 
Matilda with me 
 
2.: I?m an innocent victim of a blinded alley 
And I?m tired of all these soldiers here 
No one speaks english and everything?s broken 
And my strength is soaking away to go 
Waltzing Matilda,... 
 
3.: Now I?ve lost my St. Christopher 
Now that I?ve kissed her 
And the one-armed bandit knows 
And the maverick chinaman with the cold blooded signs 
And the girls down by the striptease shows go 
Waltzing Matilda,... 
 
4.: No, I don?t want your sympathy 
The fugitives say, that the streets aren?t for dreaming now 
Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories 
They want a piece of the action anyhow go 
Waltzing Matilda,... 
 
5.: And it?s a battered old suitcase 
To a hotel someplace 
And a wound that will never heal 
No primadonnas, the perfume is on 
(Gm) (C) 
An old shirt that is stained 
(C7) (F) (C) (F) 
With blood and whiskey 
(Bb) 
And it?s good-night for the street-sweepers, 
(F) 
The nightwatchmen, flame-keepers 
(Gm) (C) (C7) (F) 
And goodnight matilda, too 
 
Outro: (Gm/F)/(Bb/Bb)/(F)

Goodnight Matilda, too
