Hoist That Rag Tom Waits
Great song by Tom Waits from the album "Real Gone." Key of Am, standard tuning.
Guitar solo not included this time, sorry! I just wanted to correct a lot of
simplified interpretations of the harmonies that don't do the real song justice.
Intro:
Am, Dm, E7, Am, F, Dm, B7, E7
Verse 1:
Well I learned the trade from Piggy Noles,
[Am] [Dm] [E7] [Am]
and Sing Sing Tommy Shay, boys.
[F] [Dm] [B7] [E7]
God used me as a hammer, boys,
[Am] [Dm] [E7] [Am]
To beat his weary drum today.
[F] [Dm] [B7] [E7]
Chorus:
Hoist that rag.
[Am] [Dm] [E7] [Am]
Hoist that rag.
[Am] [Dm] [E7] [Am]
The entire song repeats this verse/chorus cycle, so that's it!
