Master of Disaster – John Hiatt
VERSE 1
GDABm
Close one there Choking in clean underwear
GDABm
Bleeding tongue Eight ball pounding in my lungs
GDABm
Ship to shore I can't see the coastline anymore
GDABm
I shouldn't be here I thought I made that loud and clear
CHORUS
GDABm
But the master of disaster Gets tangled in his telecaster
GDABm
He can't play it any faster When he plays the blues
GDABm
When he had the heart to ask her And every note just shook the plaster
GDABm
Now he's just a mean old bastard When he plays the blues
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]
