Master of Disaster John Hiatt
Master of Disaster â?? John Hiatt
Can't seem to find the proper guitar tab for this song, so I worked it out myself.
The song is actually played with a Capo on the second fret. Play the F Chord like
a C Chord, letting the top 'E string' ring open, but bar the bottom 'E string' with your thumb.
Capo 2nd Fret
VERSE 1
[Fmaj7]Close one [C]there [G]Choking in clean [Am]underwear
[Fmaj7]Bleeding [C]tongue [G]Eight ball pounding in my [Am]lungs
[Fmaj7]Ship to s[C]hore I [G]can't see the coastline an[Am]ymore
[Fmaj7]I shouldn't be [C]here I [G]thought I made that [Am]loud and clear
CHORUS
[Fmaj7]But the master of [C]disaster [G]Gets tangled in his [Am]telecaster
[Fmaj7]He can't play it any [C]faster [G]When he plays the [Am]blues
[Fmaj7]When he had the heart to [C]ask her An[G]d every note just shook the [Am]plaster
[Fmaj7]Now he's just a mean old b[C]astard Wh[G]en he plays the b[Am]lues
VERSE 2
China town
Chasing that old dragon down
Madam Wong's
We play the blues with the curtains drawn
Sidewalks of white
While the LA sun beat out the night
Pounding brain
My last transmission down the drain
(CHORUS)
VERSE 2
There's a debt I owe
I'll never pay before I go
So I sing the blues
Hand me down my walking shoes
You're in my heart
Though we may be miles apart
There's my point
I'll see you in another joint
(CHORUS)
