Now Tom Waits never does anything 
straight forward.  There is a lot of
bass between these notes and it 
makes up the turn around between the
 E7
and back to the Am.  Think of it as 
a little 1-4 blues tune with the G
to run down to E7 break with the E7 
turn around.  The bass in these 
tracks
is fretless and slides a lot to get 
a kind of crying bass sound.

Put the chords over the lyrics like 
so:

1st Verse

Am                          D9
Well you hate those diesels rollin'

Am                          D9
And those Friday nights out bowlin'

G                   Gb7    F7    
When he's off for a twelve hour lay 
E7
over night.
