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

Did you ^Emhear the news about ^B7Edward?

On the ^Emback of his ^Amhead ^B7he had ^Emanother face ^EWas it a ^Amwoman's face or a young ^B7girl?

They said to ^Emremove it would ^Amkill him So poor Edward was ^B7doomed

That face could ^Emlaugh and^Am cry ^B7It was his ^Emdevil twin ^EAt night she ^Amspoke to him Things heard only in ^B7hell

They were ^Emimpossible to ^Amseparate Chained together for ^B7life

Finally the ^Embell tolled his ^Amdoom ^B7He took a ^Emsuite of rooms ^EAnd hung ^Amhimself and her from the balcony ^B7irons

Some still ^Embelieve he was ^Amfreed from her But I knew her too ^B7well I say she ^Emdrove him to ^Amsuicide And took poor Edward to ^B7hell

(It's nice to disolve the dominant (B7) with the tonic (Em) here at the end)
