Gambler's Blues chords by Hoyt Axton
Intro 1
D
Verse 1
D
Well, I'm a gamblin' man,
and I lay my money down.
G
But I gambled for love and lost
D
Now I'm leavin',
well I'm leavin' your town
Your bourgeois town
Well I gave her most of all my money
To buy her pretty dresses and things,
G
but she left me for a richer man,
D
and to sleep in a bed with springs.
I'm gonna buy me a silver inlaid casket
Made of hickory,
well -seasoned and old
G
Gonna have velvet lining
D
G
inside of my casket
D
Oh, hell with nails of solid gold
Oh, young man, oh, listen to me
Don't you ever take a,
take a deck of cards in your hand.
G
D
G
Don't give your money to any woman.
D
Oh, she'll leave you, she'll just leave you
for a richer man.
For a richer man.
Lord, they all got the money,
they got the women.
Well I am, yes I'm a gamblin' man
And I lay my money down
G
But I gamble for love and loss
D
Now I'm leavin', hell, I'm leavin',
leavin' your town.
Well, I'm leavin' your
bourgeois town.
Besides, your cops don't like me here.
And the beer's three -two.
And the women don't like men.
Especially broke men. you
