Martha - Tom Waits cover with lyrics and chords

Old chap on the phone to his past.

The chord changes are pretty frequent and too fiddly to add to the lyrics on screen, but they are availabe in detail on the net.
Briefly, on Capo I, it's D A7 D A7 Bm A G x2 for the first two lines.
D B7 Em A7 D B7 Em A7 / D B7 Em A7 Bm A G x2 for next four.
Chorus D G, D G Bm G Em A D G / D G, D G Bm G A D

Great song. Love your take on this. Tom Waits is difficult to do. Too low for me but perfect for you.You really draw every last drop emotion out of this. Absolutely glorious. Shed loads of thumbs my friend.

Lost love eh? My only regrets nowadays are the ocassional dodgy YT upload!!

Thanks a lot, Nav. Hey, just listened to your latest with your pals. Anyone reading this, check it out. Brill! Can I be in your gang? Regards, Raff.

C'est superbe bravo, que du bohneur de t"écouter !

[raffaport]

Thank you for those kind words. Regards to you, Marj.

Great vocals, Graham, again. Your tone control and soft guitar sound works here just perfectly, not to mention the well conducted choir. Never heard this song before, although covered Tom Waits once. Touching lyrics, great to have the text it displayed plus chords.

Thumbs up and kind regards, Maggie's Band.

Thank you very much, you two. Yes, it's a lovely song - I think you get more sentimental as the years roll on. Regards to you.

[raffaport]

Thanks very much, CQ.

@raffaport funnily enough I sold my string bass a couple of weeks ago for almost the same reason

[raffaport]

Hi Rich. Thank you for that. I think we both tread the same path now and again - I'm still enjoying your "Would You Like To Play The Guitar?" Great stuff. Regards, Graham
