Shadow Of Tom Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Well IE poked my lighter through Bma hurricane hole

DDrinking chaCmpagne from Ba turtle shell bowl

I Egrabbed on the hook of hiBms big fishing rod

I'm hDolding Cmy breath inB the shEadow of Tom

Verse 2

Well I starred in a puppet show in an alleyway

Built a king size bed from a bale of hay

The sun is sweat and the moon is blood

They all get eclipsed in the shadow of Tom

Chorus

DStereo blaring just asE loud as it can C D

DTom's the only one who really undeErstands

Verse 3

And I'm shuffling cards in an interstate town

I got my shoes shined by a one eyed clown

Gas station coffee ain't never too hot

I'm running on fumes in the shadow of Tom

Verse 4

There's a homemade scarecrow beating on a drum

A dead drunk preacher is cleaning his guns

Whiskey and dust and it's name is Mud

Spouted from the pulpit in the shadow of Tom

Verse 5

Then I fetched my daddy a hickory stick

Every time I cuss an unborn baby kicks

Daddy's gonna have to hit me really really hard

To end my time in the shadow of Tom
