IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD          TOM WAITS


         D              G      D               D
Well the eggs chase the bacon round the fryin' pan
        D           Bm              Em           A7
and the whinin' dog pidgeons by the steeple bell rope
        D               G             D         G
and the dogs tipped the garbage pails over last night
            D         Bm             Em        A7
and there's always construction work bothering you

Chorus
       D       G
In the neighborhood
       D       G
In the neighborhood
       D    A7 D
In the neighborhood

D          G           D            G
Friday's a funeral and Saturday's a bride
D           Bm            Em       A7
Sey's got a pistol on the register side
        D          G                 D            G
and the goddamn delivery trucks they make to much noise
       D             Bm       Em          A7
and we don't get our butter delivererd no more

Chorus

     D           G           D        G
Well big Mambo's kicking his old grey hound
        D              Bm                   Em            A7
and the kids can't get ice-cream 'cause the market burned down
        D         G             D             G
and the newspaper sleeping bags blow down the lane
        D       Bm               Em         A7
and the goddamn flatbed's got me pinned in again

Chorus
          D               G      D                G
There's a couple Filipino girl's gigglin' by the church
        D         Bm             Em             A7
and the window is busted and the landlord ain't home
    D                G        D                 G
and Butch joined the army yea that's where he's been
        D            Bm             Em        A7
and the jackhammer's diggin' up the sidewalks again


Chorus
