Miserys The River Of The World by Tom Waits
Miserys The River Of The World
Intro: N.C(Fm)
Fm Cm
The higher that the monkey can climb, the more he shows his tail
Fm Cm
Call no man happy till he dies, there's no milk at the bottom of the pail
Dm
God builds a church, the devil builds a chapel
like the thistles that are growing on the trunk of a tree
All the good in the world you can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me
Fm
If there's one thing you can say about mankind
Dm
There's nothing kind about man
Fm
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
Cm
But it always comes roaring back again
Fm
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
Misery's the river of the world
