Poor Edward by Tom Waits Transcribed by Johan Jeppsson Standard tuning 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 Em B7 Did you hear the news about Edward? Em Am On the back of his head B7 Em he had another face E Am Was it a woman's face B7 or a young girl? Em Am They said to remove it would kill him B7 So poor Edward was doomed Em Am That face could laugh and cry B7 Em It was his devil twin E Am At night she spoke to him B7 Things heard only in hell Em Am They were impossible to separate B7 Chained together for life Em Am Finally the bell tolled his doom B7 Em He took a suite of rooms E Am And hung himself and her B7 from the balcony irons Em Am Some still believe he was freed from her B7 But I knew her too well Em Am I say she drove him to suicide B7 And took poor Edward to hell (It's nice to disolve the dominant (B7) with the tonic (Em) here at the end)
