Master Of Disaster by John Hiatt
Master Of Disaster
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
G D A Bm
Close one there Choking in clean underwear
G D A Bm
Bleeding tongue Eight ball pounding in my lungs
G D A Bm
Ship to shore I can't see the coastline anymore
G D A Bm
I shouldn't be here I thought I made that loud and clear
[Chorus]
G D A Bm
But the master of disaster Gets tangled in his telecaster
G D A Bm
He can't play it any faster When he plays the blues
G D A Bm
When he had the heart to ask her And every note just shook the plaster
G D A Bm
Now he's just a mean old bastard When he plays the blues
[Solo]
G D A Bm x2
[Verse 2]
G D
China town
A Bm
Chasing that old dragon down
G D
Madam Wong's
A Bm
We play the blues with the curtains drawn
G D
Sidewalks of white
A Bm
While the LA sun beat out the night
G D
Pounding brain
A Bm
My last transmission down the drain
[Chorus]
G D A Bm
But the master of disaster Gets tangled in his telecaster
G D A Bm
He can't play it any faster When he plays the blues
G D A Bm
When he had the heart to ask her And every note just shook the plaster
G D A Bm
Now he's just a mean old bastard When he plays the blues
[Solo]
G D A Bm x4
[Verse 3]
G D
There's a debt I owe
A Bm
I'll never pay before I go
G D
So I sing the blues
A Bm
Hand me down my walking shoes
G D
You're in my heart
A Bm
Though we may be miles apart
G D
There's my point
A Bm
I'll see you in another joint
[Chorus]
G D A Bm
But the master of disaster Gets tangled in his telecaster
G D A Bm
He can't play it any faster When he plays the blues
G D A Bm
When he had the heart to ask her And every note just shook the plaster
G D A Bm
Now he's just a mean old bastard When he plays the blues
[Outro]
G D A Bm
Now he's just a mean old bastard When he plays the blues
G D A Bm x8

Close one there
Choking in clean underwear
Bleeding tongue
Eight ball pounding in my lungs
Ship to shore
I can't see the coastline anymore
I shouldn't be here
I thought I made that loud and clear
But the master of disaster
Gets tangled in his Telecaster
He can't play it any faster
When he plays the blues
When he had the heart to ask her
And every note just shook the plaster
Now he's just a mean old bastard
When he plays the blues
China Town
Chasing that old dragon down
Madam Wong's
We play the blues with the curtains drawn
Sidewalks of white
While the L.A. sun beat out the night
Pounding brain
My last transmission down the drain
And the master of disaster
Gets tangled in his Telecaster
He can't play it any faster
When he plays the blues
When he had the heart to ask her
And every note just shook the plaster
Now he's just a mean old bastard
When he plays the blues
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
When the master of disaster
Gets tangled in his Telecaster
He can't play it any faster
When he plays the blues
When he had the heart to ask her
And every note just shook the plaster
Now he's just a mean old bastard
When he plays the blues
Now he's just a mean old bastard
When he plays the blues
