Couldn't find this one anywhere... one of Tom's most depressing and emotive pieces, so here goes.
Bronx Lullabye / Smuggler's Waltz (Tom Waits)
AmDaggers of E7moonlight
AmMurder the E7sheets
Dm G9 Esus4/B E7
And the stink of a four dollar room
And AmDaddy's gone a E7hunting
For a Amdime bag E7schoolboy
Dm G9 Esus4/B E7
Tied up with a yellow balloon
Dm G7 C? Am7
So hush little baby, Daddy must go
I'll Dmcover you G7up with a Esus4blanket of E7snow
By the Amtime I make E7Jersey
AmYou'll be in D7heaven
F7 E7 Am D7 G C9 F E7 (pause A beat)
In a pretty blue shoe box I know
So Amsing a song of E7ten grand
With a Ampocket full of E7dough
Dm G9 Esus4/B E7
And I can't take you with me to Baltimore
Wake AmGod up in E7Heaven
Have him Amlook down D7below
There's a F7little lost E7angel
AmBloD7omiGngC9...F E7
Am (& windup, ending on A)
...in the snow
