[F#m] Well, they blew [A] up the chicken [D] man in Philly [A] last night.
Now they blew [D] up his house too.
[A]
Down on the boardwalk, they're [D] getting ready for [A] a fight.
[F#m] Gonna [A] see what them [D] racket boys can do.
[A] Now [F#m] there's [A] trouble bustling in [D] from [A] out of state, and the DA [D] can't get no [A] relief.
Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade, [F#m] and the gambling [A] commission's hanging on by the [E] skin of its [F#m] teeth.
Well, now, [A] everything dies, [D] baby, that's [A] a fact.
[F#m] But maybe [A] everything that dies [E] someday [F#m] comes back.
Put your [A] makeup [Bm] on, fix your [A] hair up pretty, [F#m] and meet me [A]
[D] tonight in [A] Atlantic City.
[D] [A]
[D] [A] Well, I got a job and tried to put my money away, [F#m] but I got [A] debts that no [Bm] honest [A] man can pay.
So I drew what I [D] had from the [A] central trust, and I bought us two tickets on [E] that ghost city bus.
[F#m] Now, baby, everything [D] dies, baby, [A] that's a fact.
But maybe everything that dies someday comes back.
Put your makeup on, [D] fix your [A] hair up pretty, and meet me tonight in Atlantic City.
[D] [A]
[D] [A] Now,
[E] [D] [A]
[D] life may be dark, [F#m] love may be cold, but with [E] you forever [F#m] I'll stay.
[D] Work the gold out, wear the [F#m] sands, turn into gold.
Now, [D] [A] put on your stockings, baby, because the night's getting cold.
Baby, everything dies, [D] baby, that's [A] a fact.
[D] But maybe everything [A] that dies [E]
someday comes [D] back.
[F#m] [D]
[A] [F#m] [A]
I've been looking for a job, but it's hard to find.
Down here it's just winners and losers, and don't get caught on the wrong side of that line.
Well, I'm tired of coming out on this losing end.
So, honey, last night I met this guy, [D] and I'm gonna do a little favor [A] for [E] him.
[A] Well, I guess everything dies, baby, that's a fact.
[F#m] Maybe [A] everything that dies [D] [A] someday comes back.
Fix your hair up nice, [D] fix [A] yourself up pretty, and meet me [D] tonight in [A] Atlantic City.
And meet me [D] tonight in [A] Atlantic City.
Oh, meet me tonight in Atlantic City.
And meet me [D] tonight in [A] Atlantic City.
Oh, everything dies, baby.
Oh, [D] everything [A]
[D] dies.
