<< Back to Tom Waits Song List

Version 1 Version 2

            'Anywhere I lay my head' off the album 'rain dogs' by Tom Waits

This isn't really a guitar song but I was fooling around with my acoustic
the other night and worked out some chords for it.

Capo 1.

Chords used:

C     (x32010)
Fmaj7 (x03210)
G/F   (320010)
F     (x03211)
G     (320033)

[Verse 1]

C   Fmaj7     C          
 My head is a spinning round
C   Fmaj7       G/F
 my heart in my shoes, yeah
Fmaj7                        G/F
 I went and set the thems on fire
     C          G/F       C
 and now I must come back down
F                C
 see I fell in a sleep boys
F                    G
 I can feel it in my bones
        C         Fmaj7             C       Fmaj7
 wow-oh anywhere, anywhere I want to lay my head
          C      G/F     C
 I want to call my own

[Verse 2]

C                    Fmaj7           C
 Well I see that the world is upside-down
               C            Fmaj7          G/F
 seems that my pockets were filled up with gold
Fmaj7                            G/F
 and now the clouds well they've covered everything all
C                G/F     C
 and the wind is blowing cold
F                 C
 now I don't need anybody
           F                    G
 because I learn, I learn to be alone
        C         Fmaj7     C                 Fmaj7    C
 I said anywhere, anywhere, anywhere I lay my head boys
   G/F     C
 I call my own


That's it, you can pick the individual strings or just work out
a good strumming rythem, either way it sounds good with those chords
