Wow! That is a phonomenal performance of one of my favourite songs by my favourite ever singer. Just trying to learn it myself - not sure whether I am inspired or thoroughly depressed now!!
Excellent stuff, i love this song and your version is fantastic! I've tried to figure out what you are doing but am failing dismally, any chance you couold post some tab? Cheers, Phil.
This is superb. As much as I like the original by Waits, I appreciate being able to hear the lyrics so distinctly. You have a fine voice. Your guitar playing is perfect, especially there at the end.
Will you please tab this out for me? its my uncles favorite song and I would love to learn it for him. I cant quite figure it out from just watching. not good enough for that.
No Problem tanDlegen, I have the sheet music and can transpose with a little work staring at your fingering! Thanks again for a great YouTube performance!
I just saw your comment about tabs for your rendition. If you still have them I'd be more than apprecitive if you emailed it to me. Again, Great job! Great tone too.
dude, that is spot on I thought you were miming at the start. You nailed it. Do you have a tab for what you played here? I would love to see it. Cheers.

Nice one mate. I won't ask you for tabs, but I wish the video angle would let me see the fingering better. Still, I'm working it out slowly.

one of the best tom waits tunes... and you really
have the guitar and voice nailed... wish you had
a better camera angle on that though... so i got
a lot of work ahead trying to figure out all the
fingerings from general position and sound...

Hey I was wondering if you gig for a living or if music is just your fav past time? Wish you lived in the Rocky mountain s somewhere I'd love to put a band together with you! I realize this is a Waits tune but my favorite version was Jerry Jeff Walkers from back in his Luchenbach days with Gary P Nunn and the Lost Gonzo Band. They rocked it and picked up the tempo alot from the original Waits version! You play well my friend! Peace!

No, I just play when I have the time.
I work during the day, so as often as I get the chance I try to get some quality-time with my guitar. :-)
Yeah, that would be great! It must be nice living there! I've alway wanted to go there some day.
By the way, I really like your videos!
