The Amazing Tom Waits Encyclopedia Tabs

[KarlK]

Hey, we all need to learn more songs, right?

So, for all my friends on the AGF, if you don't know about the chords and tabs section of the Tom Waits Encyclopeida, here is the link.

So many great songs....so little time.

Excellent...

...mixed quality of course, but we take what we can get.

Thanks for sharing the Tom Waits tabs.

IMO, most of Waits's songs do not sound good played with the open-string chords as shown on the tabs. However, for the few tabs that I looked at on that site, the chords sound good if I play the inner four string chord-forms up the neck. Really nice.

Glad there is a site for Tom's stuff, but it costs money to view anything? Is that so, or do I just need to create and account?

I've heard Wait's music done in a variety of different "grooves"; like Bob Dylan's music, Tom Wait's tunes are simple enough that they lend themselves to different arrangements readily...

I can move around and see the tabs for most of the songs, but occasionally it seems to want money. Weird.
