xTitle: Jayne's Blue Wish
Artist: Tom Waits
Album: Orphans (Bawlers)
One of my favourite Waits songs! Terrible that noone has tabbed it! So here goes!
Okay the chords are played in barre chord form for the majority of the time and there
a few augmented thrown in there too which will be marked with a *! So here is a list of
chords used:
D- x5777x
Bm- x24432
Em- x79987
B~- 7xxxxx
A- 577655
G7- 353433
G7*- 4534xx
A*- 6776xx
D/F#- 2x0230
Bm/F#- 2x4432
/- slide
When the song requires a change from D to D/F# the D is open. Unless you want to make it
for yourself!
Intro: D Bm / Em A
D Bm / Em
The sky holds all our wishes
B~ A D D/F#
The dish ran away with the spoon
G7 G7* D Bm
Chimney smoke ties the roofs to the sky
/ Em B~
There's a hole overhead
A
It's only the moon
D Bm Em B~
Will there ever be a tree
A A* Bm Bm/F#
Grown from the seeds I've sown
G7 G7* D Bm / Em
D D/F#
Life is a path lit only by the light of those I've loved
Em A D
By the light of those I loved
There is then a horn solo over the same chords until the last line is repeated, again
the same chords! Finish on D and that's the song!
You can change between barre and open if you want but I'm sure that he uses barre
Anywho hope you enjoy it! Another masterpiece from the legend that is Tom Waits!
