A Sight For Sore Eyes
Tom Waits
Another old Waits tune I couldn't find on here, so
        worked out a simple version, I'm not 100% about the
        lyrics, but it's the best I could hear.
        Oh and the  chord is really just a step up from
         to 

                if you like it? please rate it
                                                flatwound

                         A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES

     A sight for sore eyes,        It's a long time no see
     Workin' hard hardly workin',      Hey man you know me
     Water under the bridge,      Did ya see my new car
     Well it's bought and it's paid for,      Parked out-side of the bar
     And hey barkeep whats keeping you,      Keep pouring drinks
     For all these palookas,       Hey you know what I thinks
     That we toast to the old days,     And Di-Mag-gio too
     An' old Drysdales and Mantle,     Whitey Ford and to you

     Oh you know the ol' gang ain't around,     Everyone has left town
     'Cept for Thelma 'n' Giardina,     Said they just might be down
     Oh half drunk all the time,      An' I'm all drunk the rest
     Monks still the champion,      Oh but I am the best
     And hey barkeep whats keeping you,      Keep pouring drinks
     For all these palookas,       Hey you know what I thinks
     That we toast to the old days,     And Di-Mag-gio too
     An' old Drysdales and Mantle,     Whitey Ford and to you

     Guess you heard about Nash,      He was killed in a crash
     Oh that must have been two,      Or three years ago now
     Yeah, he spun out and he rolled,      Hit a telephone pole
     And died with the radio  on
     Flo she's married with a kid,      Finally split up with Sid
     He's up north for a nickles worth,      For armed robbery
     And I'll play you some pinball,       No you ain't got a chance
     Then go on over and,    Ask her to dance
     And hey barkeep whats keeping you,      Keep pouring drinks
     For all these palookas,       Hey you know what I thinks
     That we toast to the old days,     And Di-Mag-gio too
     An' old Drysdales and Mantle,     Whitey Ford and to you-oo-o
