LITTLE BOY BLUE by Tom Waits
CmLittle Boy Blue, come blow your horn
The dish ran away with the G7spoon
CmHome again, home again Saturday morn
He never gets up before G7noon
Well, Cmshe used to G/Brender you Eb/Bblegal and F/Atender
when Abyou used to Eb/Gsend her your Fpromises, Gboy
A Cmdiller, a G/Bdollar, unEb/Bbbutton your F/Acollar
and Abcome out and Eb/Gholler out Fall of your Gnoise
So Little Boy Blue, come blow your top
and cut it right down to the quick
Don't sit home and cry on the Fourth of July
around now you're hittin' the bricks
So abracadabra, now she disappeared
Everything's Canada Dry
So watch your behavior and rattle your cage
with a bottle of Bourbon, goodbye
So Little Boy Blue lost little Bo Peep
She fell through a hole in the nest
Now ain't it peculiar that she's finally cooled
Your big wheels just like all of the rest
Whenever it rains, the umbrellas complain
They always get played for a chump
So mark it and strike it, she's history now
and you're hangin' out at the pump
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn
The dish ran away with the spoon
Home again, home again Saturday morn
He never gets up before noon
Well, she used to render you legal and tender
when you used to send her your promises boy
A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar
and come out and holler out all of your noise
