Arrangement source for Fraction Of A Man by Shawn Mullins
{capo: 2}
{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
[G]Now my old friend Harry
[C]Never slowed down to marry
He's in s[G]ales, he's gone most of the y[D]ear
He s[G]miles through all his lies
With do[C]llar signs in his eyes
[G] [D] Riff 1 ([Em] [G])
And he orders himself another beer
[G]Now Harry, he's a dreamer
[C]A scholar and a schemer
But he'll be t[G]here for you
When push comes to sh[D]ove
His m[G]ama called him Harold
[C]And she was one of only two w[G]omen
[D] Riff 2 ([Em] [C])
That Harry ever loved
[C]The other was a waitress
[C]In Cave Creek, Arizona
[C]That broke his heart
And tangled up his m[G]ind
[G]My old friend Harry
[D]Lookin' kinda scary
[D7] Riff 3 ([Em] [C] [D])
Wonders if he's runnin' out of time
Now B[G]iloxi's got a sadness
Like a d[C]ark day in December
[G]That Harry recognizes
In al[D]l forgotten southern towns
[G]Thumbin' through the phonebook
For a n[C]ame he can't remember
Lookin' de[G]sperate, like a junk[D]ie
Waitin' for a fix to come ar[Em]ound [D]
[C]Sittin' playing Blackjack
[C]With a hooker and a tourist
[C]And a one-eyed dealer winning every h[G]and
[G]Harry sips Black Label
[D]Slumps down at the table
[D7] Riff 3 [Em]
Feelin' like a fraction of a man
F[C]eelin' like a fra[D]ction of a m[Em]an [C] [D] [G]
He doesn't play these on Honeydew, but he puts them in on his live album.
