Alice chords by Tom Waits

GuitarPianoUkulele

Verse 1
Bbm 
C 
It's dreamy weather we're on
Fm 
F 
You waved your crooked wand
Bbm 
Along an icy   pond
C 
With a frozen moon
Fm 
Bbm 
A murder of silhouette crows I saw
C 
And the tears on my face
Bbm 
C 
And the skates on the pond
Fm 
They spell Alice

Verse 2
Bbm 
C 
I'll disappear in your name
Fm 
F 
But you must wait for me
Bbm 
Somewhere across the sea
C 
There's the wreck of a ship
Fm 
Bbm 
Your hair is like meadow grass on    the tide
C 
And the raindrops on my window
Bbm 
C 
And the ice in my drink
Bbm 
C 
Fm 
Baby, all that I can think of is Alice

Verse 3

Bbm

Arithmetic arithmetock

I turn the hands back on the clock

Bbm

How does the ocean rock the boat?

How did the razor find my throat?

Bbm

The only strings that hold me here

Bbm

Are tangled up around the pier

Chorus 1
Bbm 
C 
And so a secret kiss
Fm 
F 
Brings madness with the bliss
Bbm 
And I will  think of this
C 
When I'm dead in my grave
Fm 
Bbm 
Set me adrift and I'm lost over there
C 
But I must be insane
Bbm 
C 
To go skating on your  name
Bbm 
C 
And by tracing it twice
Bbm 
C 
Fm 
I fell through the ice of Alice
