Big in Japan Tom Waits
I got the [Dm]sty[Dm/F]le but not the[Dm] gra[Dm/F]ce
I got the clothes, but not the face
I got the bread, but not the butter
I got the winda, but not the shutter
But I'm [Dm]big in Ja[Dm/F]pan, I'm [Dm]big in J[Dm/F]apan
But, hey I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
I got the house, but not the deed
I got the horn, but not the reed
I got the cards, but not the luck
I got the wheel, but not the truck
But, hey I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
Riff 2
I got the [Gm]moon, I got the c[Dm]heese
I got the [Gm]whole damn nation on its k[Dm]nees
I got the [Gm]rooster, I got the c[Dm]row
I got the [E7]ebb, I got the f[A]low
(Riff 1)
I got the powder, but not the gun
I got the dog, but not the bun
I got the clouds, but not the sky
I got the stripes but not the tie
But, hey I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
(NC)
Heh-ho, they love the way I do it
Heh-ho, there's really nothin' to it
(Riff 2)
I got the moon, I got the cheese
I got the whole damn nation on its knees
I got the rooster, I got the crow
I got the ebb, I got the flow
(Riff 1)
I got the sizzle, but not the steak
I got the boat, but not the lake
I got the sheets, but not the bed
I got the jam, but not the bread
But, hey I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
I'm big in Japan, I'm big in Japan
