The night [Cm] was clear [A#m] and the moon was [A#m] yellow
[D#m] And the leaves [F#] came _ [C#] tumbling down
I was standing on the corner
[F#] When I heard my bulldog bark
[C#] He was barking at the two [G#] men
Who were gambling [C#] in the dark
[G#] _ [C#] It was Staggly and Billy
[F#] The two men who gambled late
[C#] Staggly drew seven
[G#m] Billy swore the [C#] boy through eight _
[G#] _ _ [C#] Staggly told Billy
[F#] I can't let you go with that
[C#] You want more of my money [G#] and my brothers
[C#] You're done as
[G#] _ _ [C#] Staggly went home
[G#] And he got his [F#] party full
[C#] He said I'm going back to the [G#] ballroom
Just to pay [C#] that debt I owe
[G#] Look out Staggly, get it, get it, [C#] get it, get it
_ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ [C#] _ _ [G#] _ _ [C#] _ _
[G#] _ [C#] Staggly, he went to the ballroom
[F#] Stood across the ballroom door
[C#] He said nobody move
[G#] And he pulled out his [C#] party coat _
[G#] _ [C#] Billy, he cried Staggly
[F#] Staggly, please don't take my life
I [C#] got three little children
[G#] And a very [C#] sickly wife
[G#] _ _ [C#] Staggly shot Billy
[F#] Lord he shot that old boy so bad
[C#] So the bullet came through [G#] Billy
And it broke the [C#] bartender's gut
[G#] Go Staggly, go, go, [C#] go, go
Go Staggly, go, go, [F#] go, go
Go Staggly, go, go, go, [C#] go
Go [G#] Staggly, go, go, go, [C#] go
Go Staggly, [G#] _ _ [C#] go, go, go, go
Go Staggly, [F#] _
[F#] go, go, go, go
Go Staggly, [C#] go, go, go, go
Go Staggly, [G#] go, go, go, go
Go [C#] Staggly, go, go, go, go Go Staggly
_ _ _ _ _ Thank [D] _
[A] you _ _ _ _ _ _
