[D] [E]
[A] [D] [A]
[E] [A] We [E] skid the knife at [F#m] angles, [A] [D] [F#] check card reads across the [Bm] floor.
[D] [E] I was feeling kind of seasick.
[A] [C#m] The crowd called out for [F#m] more.
[A] [D] [F#m] The room was humming [Bm] harder [D] as [E] the ceiling flew away.
[A] [C#m] When we called out for [F#m]
another [A] drink, [D] [F#m] the waiter brought the [Bm] drink.

[A] [D] [F#m] one of sixteen [Bm] faithful virgins [D] that [E] were leaving for the coast.
[A] [C#m] And though all my [F#m] eyes were open, [A] [D] they [F#m] might have just as well been [Bm]
closed.
[E] And so [A] it was [C#m] [F#m] that later, [A] [D] [F#m] as the moon had soared [Bm] in the sky,
[D] [E] that a face that burst [C#m] asleep, [E] [A] turned a wire, [D] shaking [A]
