Late John Garfield Blues

Written by John Prine

	  		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
