Tom Waits - How's it gonna end

He had ^Amthree whole ^Cdollars, a ^Dmworn out car A ^Cwife who was^E leaving for^Am good Life's made of ^Ctrouble, ^Dmworry, pain and struggle She wrote goodbye in the ^Cdust on the ^Ehood They found a ^Dmmap of Missouri, ^Amlipstick on a glass They ^Dmmust have left in the ^Cmiddle of the ^Enight And ^DmI.. ^E want to know the ^Amsame thing Everyone wants to ^Dmknow, how's it ^Egoing to ^Amend

Behind^Am the smoke colored ^Ccurtain the ^Dmgirl disappeared They ^Cfound out that the ^Ering was a fake^Am A tree born crooked^C will never^Dm grow straight She sunk like a ^Chammer into the ^Elake Long ^Dmlost letter and an ^Am old leaky boat ^DmPromises are never^C meant to ^Ekeep And ^DmI want^E to know the ^Amsame thing I wanna know ^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am

The barn^Am leaned over^C, the ^Dmvultures dried their wings The ^Cmoon climbed ^Eup an empty ^Amsky The sun sank ^Cdown behind the tree^Dm on a hill There's a killer and he's ^Ccoming through the ^Erye But ^Dmmaybe he's the father of that ^Amlost little girl It's hard^Dm to tell^C in this light^E And ^DmI want^E to know the ^Amsame thing Everyone wants to know,^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am

^Dm Tied your wagon and you plow over the bones of the dead Out among the roses and the ^Amweeds And you can ^Dmnever go back and the answer is no And wishing for it ^Conly makes it ^E7bleed

Joel ^AmTornabene^C was broken^Dm on the wheel Shane^C and Bum Mahoney^E on the ^Amlamb The grain was as gold^C as ^DmSheila's hair All the way from ^CLiverpool with ^Eall we could steal He was ^Dmrobbed of twenty dollars his ^Ambody found stripped Cast^Dm out in the ^Charbor there and ^Edrowned And ^DmI want^E to know the ^Amsame thing I wanna know ^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am

The ^Amsirens are ^Csnaking their ^Dmway up the hill It's ^Clast call ^Esomewhere in the ^Amworld The reptiles blend in^C with the ^Dmcolor of the street Life is sweet at the ^Cedge of a ^Erazor And ^Dmdown in the first row of an ^Amold picture show An ^Dmold man is ^Casleep the ^Ecredit starts to roll And ^DmI want^E to know the ^Amsame thing I wanna know ^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am

^DmI want^E to know the ^Amsame thing I just wanna know ^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am And ^DmI just want^E to know the ^Amsame thing I wanna know ^Dmhow's it ^Egoing to end^Am
