Tom: A
A D 4x
[Verse]
A D A
I've got a woman, she's wild as Rome
A A7 D A
She likes to lay naked and be gazed upon
E D
She crosses a bridge and then sets it on fire
A D A
Lands like a bird on a telephone wire
[Verse]
A D A
Wine bottles scattered like last night's clothes
A D A
Cigarette papers and dominoes
E D
She laughs for a minute about the shape I'm in
A D A
Says, you be the sinner honey and I'll be the sin
[Chorus]
E
I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream
D
I'm gonna get me some mescaline
E
She brings me roses and a place to lean
D A D A
A drunken poet's dream
[Verse]
A D A
There's some money on the table and a pistol on the floor
A D A
Some old paper back books of Louis L'amour
E D
She says, honey don't worry 'bout judgment day
A D A
Dyin' to get to heaven just ain't our way
[Chorus]
E
I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream
D
I'm gonna get me some mescaline
E D
She brings me roses and a place to lean
D A D A
A drunken poet's dream
[Bridge]
Bm
And all my life I laid around
F#m
While the colors all turned blue
D
Closed my eyes and finally found
E
It brought me back to you
[Verse]
A
I've got a woman, she's wild as Rome
A D A
She likes to lay naked and be gazed upon
E D
She crosses a bridge and then sets it on fire
A D A
Lands like a bird on a telephone wire
[Chorus]
E
I'm gonna holler and I'm gonna scream
D
I'm gonna get me some mescaline
E D
She brings me roses and a place to lean
D A D A
A drunken poet's dream
[Outro]
D A D A
A drunken poet's dream

A drunken poet
