Biografía:
Thomas Alan Waits (nacido en Pomona (California) el 7 de diciembre de 1949) es un pianista, cantante, compositor y actor estadounidense, famoso por sus canciones de tono áspero inspiradas en escritores de la generación Beat, en especial Jack Kerouac
En 1967 comenzó a trabajar en los cabarets de Los Ángeles, ambiente que le influyó mucho para las canciones de su primer disco, Closing Time (1973), aunque este álbum se vio eclipsado por The Eagles y Tim Buckley

Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Licorice tattoo turned a gun metal blue
Dm7 C7 Fm7 Eb G# C7
Scrawled across the shoulders of a dying town
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Took the one eyed Jacks across the railroad tracks
Dm7 C7 Fm7 Eb G# C7
And the scar on its belly pulled a stranger passing through
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
He's a juvenile delinquent never learned how to behave
Bbm7 C7 Dm7
But the cops'd never think to look in Burma-Shave
Bbm7 C7 Dm7 C7
And the road was like a ribbon and the moon was like a bone
Dm7 C7 Fm7 Eb G# C7
He didn't seem to be like any guy she'd ever known
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
He kinda looked like Farley Granger with his hair slicked back
Dm7 C7 Fm7 Eb G# C7
She says I'm a sucker for a fella in a cowboy hat
Dm7 C7
How far are you going
Dm7 Bbm7 C7
He said depends on what you mean
Bbm7 C7
He says I'm only stoppin' here to get some gasoline
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
I guess I'm going thataway just as long as it's paved
Bbm7 C7 Dm7
And I guess you'd say I'm on my way to Burma-Shave
Bbm7 C7
And with her knees up on the glove compartment
Dm7 C7
Took out her barrettes
Dm7 C7 Fm7
And her hair spilled out like root beer
G# C7
And she popped her gum and arched her back
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Hell Marysville ain't nothing but a wide spot in the road
Bbm7
Some night my heart pounds just like thunder I don't know
C7
Why it don't explode
Dm7 C7
Cause everyone in this stinking town
Dm7 C7
Has got one foot in the grave
Bbm7
And I'd rather take my chances
C7 Dm7
Out in Burma-Shave
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Presley's what I go by why don't you change the station
Dm7 C Fm7 G# C7
Count the grain elevators in the rearview mirror
Dm7 C7
Mister anywhere you point this thing
Dm7 C7
Has got to beat the hell out of the sting
Dm7 C# C7 Dm7 C7
Of going to bed with every dream that dies here every mornin
Bbm7 C7
And so drill me a hole
Dm7
With a barber pole
Bbm7 C7 Dm7 C7
I'm jumping my parole just like a fugitive tonight
Bbm7 C7
Why don't you have another swig
Dm7 C7
and pass that car if you're so brave
Bbm7
I wanna get there before the sun comes up in
C7 Dm7
Burma-Shave.
Dm7 C Fm7 Eb G# C7
And the spider web crack and the mustang screamed
Dm7 C Fm7 Eb G# C7
Smoke from the tires and the twisted machine
Dm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Just a nickel's worth of dreams and every wishbone that they saved
Bbm7
Lie swindled from them on the way to
C7 Dm7
Burma shave
Bbm7 C7 Dm7 C7
And the sun hit the derrick and cast a bat wing shadow
Bbm7 C7 Dm7 C7
Up against the car door on the shotgun side
Bbm7 C7
And when they pulled her from the wreck you know she
Dm7 C7
Still had on her shades
Bbm7
They say that dreams are growing wild just this side of
C7 Dm7
Burma Shave
