Tom Waits - Chase the Clouds Away lyrics

The blood upon the bridal wreath The bridal wreath, the bridal wreath The devil shows his shiny teeth His shiny teeth, his shiny teeth Oh, shiny teeth Now take a seat there by the door He'll leave you on the k**ing floor He's gone and set the clouds on fire They're burning there forever more The wind has blown the clouds away The clouds away, the clouds away It soon will be our wedding day Our wedding day, our wedding day The sun will shine The sun will shine, the birds will sing I'll give my love a wedding ring The briar and the rose shall be Entwined, my love, forever more The sun will shine, the birds will sing I'll give my love a wedding ring The briar and the rose shall be Entwined, my love, forever more Oh, knock on the hickory of a peg-leg man A peg-leg man, a peg-leg man I'll wait beneath a blood-red moon A blood-red moon, a blood-red moon 'Neath a blood-red moon I'd rather die than part from you I have a lovely wish for you I'll wait here by the shady bush You'll be mine forever more
