INTRO: D/A D (4x)
D/A D
Black faces pressed against the glass
G G/B D/A
Where the wind had leaned its weight
D
Wind blown scars and top-down cars
E E7 A
All share one western trait
G G/B D/A
Sadness leaks through tear-stained cheeks
F#m G*
From winos to dime store jews
D/A
Probably don't know they gave me
A A7 D/A
These late John Garfield blues
Midnight fell on Franklin St.
And the lamp bulbs all was broke
For the life of me I could not see
But I heard a brand new joke
2 men were standing on a bridge
One jumped and screamed you lose
Just left the odd man holding
These late John Garfield blues
I'm going away to the last resort
In a week or two real soon
Where the fish don't bite but once a night
In the moonlight of the moon
The horses scream their nightmares dreams
And the dead men all wear shoes
'Cause everybody's dancing
These late John Garfieldfield blues
