BARROOM GIRLS (Gillian Welch / David Rawlings)
Track 4 from "REVIVAL" (Almo, AMSD - 80006)
CAPO 5
VERSE 1:
G
Oh the night came undone like a party dress
D
And fell at her feet in a beautiful mess
G C
The smoke and the whiskey came home in her curls
G D G D
And they crept through the dreams of the barroom girls
VERSE 2:
Well she tosses and turns because the sun is unkind
And the heat of the day is coming in thru the blinds
But leave all the blue skies for the rest of the world
Because the neon will shine for the barroom girls
BRIDGE:
D G
Oh the barroom girls go by your side
A D
Like the ponies who pass on a carousel ride
G C
And all of the colors go 'round in a swirl
G D G D
When you dance in the arms of the barroom girls
VERSE 3:
Now she rolls to her feet when she can't sleep no more
And looks at her clothes lying out on the floor
Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls
Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls
Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls
Are the bright morning stars of the barroom girls
