Capo 2nd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Now my old friend Harry
Never slowed down to marry
He's in sales, he's gone most of the year
He smiles through all his lies
With dollar signs in his eyes
Riff 1 ( )
And he orders himself another beer
Now Harry, he's a dreamer
A scholar and a schemer
But he'll be there for you
When push comes to shove
His mama called him Harold
And she was one of only two women
Riff 2 ( )
That Harry ever loved
The other was a waitress
In Cave Creek, Arizona
That broke his heart
And tangled up his mind
My old friend Harry
Lookin' kinda scary
Riff 3 ( )
Wonders if he's runnin' out of time
Now Biloxi's got a sadness
Like a dark day in December
That Harry recognizes
In all forgotten southern towns
Thumbin' through the phonebook
For a name he can't remember
Lookin' desperate, like a junkie
Waitin' for a fix to come around
Sittin' playing Blackjack
With a hooker and a tourist
And a one-eyed dealer winning every hand
Harry sips Black Label
Slumps down at the table
Riff 3
Feelin' like a fraction of a man
Feelin' like a fraction of a man
He doesn't play these on Honeydew, but he puts them in on his live album.
