Judy Collins - Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues
CAPO: 4th Fret
{Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
C G
When you're lost in the rain, in Juarez, and it's Easter time too
C G
When your gravity fails, and negativity don't pull you through
C G
Don't put on any airs when you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue
D C G
They got some hungry women there and they really make a mess out of you
[Verse 2]
C G
If you see Saint Annie, please tell her thanks a lot
C G
I cannot move my fingers, they are all in a knot
C G
I haven't got the strength to get up and take another shot
D C G
And my best friend, the doctor, won't even say what it is I've got
[Verse 3]
C G
Sweet Melinda, the peasants call her the goddess of gloom
C G
She speaks good English, and she invites you up into her room
C G
And you're so kind and careful not to go to her too soon
D C G
And she takes your voice, and leaves you howling at the moon
[Verse 4]
C G
Up on housing project hill, it's either fortune or fame
You can pick one or the other
C G
Though neither of them ought to be what they claim
C G
And if you're looking to get silly, you better go back to from where you came
D C G
'Cause the cops don't need you, and man, they expect the same
[Verse 5]
C G
Now all the authorities, they just stand around and boast
C G
How they blackmailed the sergeant at arms into leaving his post
C G
And picking up Angel, who just arrived here from the coast
D C G
Who looked so fine at first, but left looking just like a ghost
[Verse 6]
C G
I started out on burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff
C G
Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough
C G
But the joke was one me, there was nobody there to even bluff
D C G
I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough
