(ver. 1)
Tom Waits
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD            TOM WAITS


         C              F      C               F
Well the eggs chase the bacon round the fryin' pan
        C           Am              Dm           G7
and the whinin' dog pidgeons by the steeple bell rope
        C               F             C         F
and the dogs tipped the garbage pails over last night
            C         Am             Dm        G7
and there's always construction work bothering you

Chorus
       C       F
In the neighborhood
       C       F
In the neighborhood
       C    G7 C
In the neighborhood

C          F           C            F
Friday's a funeral and Saturday's a bride
C           Am            Dm       G7
Sey's got a pistol on the register side
        C          F                 C            F
and the goddamn delivery trucks they make to much noise
       C             Am       Dm          G7
and we don't get our butter delivererd no more

Chorus

     C           F           C        F
Well big Mambo's kicking his old grey hound
        C              Am                   Dm            G7
and the kids can't get ice-cream 'cause the market burned down
        C         F             C             F
and the newspaper sleeping bags blow down the lane
        C       Am               Dm         G7
and the goddamn flatbed's got me pinned in again

Chorus
          C               F      C                F
There's a couple Filipino girl's gigglin' by the church
        C         Am             Dm             G7
and the window is busted and the landlord ain't home
    C                F        C                 F
and Butch joined the army yea that's where he's been
        C            Am             Dm        G7
and the jackhammer's diggin' up the sidewalks again


Chorus
