It's a vaguest lie, [Em] said the Queen of Spain, but don't tell it to a poor man,
cause he's got to kill for every thrill, the best he can.
[C]
Everywhere [Em] around me, I see jealousy and mayhem,
cause no man have all that peace of mind to carry them.
[Dm]
Well I don't really care if it's [Em] wrong or if it's right,
but [F]
until my ship comes in, [Em] I'll live night by [Am]
night.

[F] [C] [Em] When the Joker tried to tell me I could cut it in the smooth town,
[F] when he [Em] tried to hang that sign on me, I said take it down.
[C] When the Don patrol [Em] got to tell you twice, they're gonna do it with a shot gun,
[Fm] yes I'm [Em] cashing in this ten [F] cent life for [D] another one.
[Dm] Well I ain't got the heart [Em] to lose another fight,
[F] so until my ship comes in, [Em] I'll live night [Dm] by [A]
