Begging Bowl Blues
Intro
E, F#, A, B X 6
E F#
Windy old head
A B E F#
I sang along with the words that she said
A B
Happy and bad
E F#
"Where goes the time?"
A B
She asked me once
E F#
Oh and if you don't mind
A B
Give back my heart when you go
E, F#, A, B x2
E F#
Begging bowl blues
A B
Wrapped round my head
E F# A B
Like a fistful of news nobody reads
E F# A B
Me and her name I can't recall
E F# A B
I was never the same after she left me
E B E
And oh I missed her so
B E B E B
Never thought much of her reason to go
E B E
And well, she cast a spell
B E B E
Under I fell in a useless hello
Bridge.
A, B, E, C#m x3
A, B,
E, F#, A, B x4
E F#
Useless old day
A B E F#
Wishing the hours would take me away
A B
Just for a while
E F# A B
Nobody's crook, stealing an answer
E F# A B E
Oh why does he look drunk as the day he was born?
B E B E B
Ragged and torn, lives for the money these days,
E B
What a joke
E B E
And once, twice is a sin
B E B E
Couldn't get in with the elegant folk
A, B, E, C#m x4
A, B
E C#m A B
I cannot wait any longer
E C#m A B
And I cannot claim to be free
E C#m A B
Whenever it seems like I'm losing
E C#m A B
The begging bowl blues follow me
E C#m A B
And she cannot say that she's happy
E C#m A B
And I cant be sure if I care
E C#m A B
I got wrapped up in the money
E C#m A B
And the begging bowl blues kept me there
E, C#m, A, B
Repeat to fade
