[E] On a warm summer's evening, [A] on a train bound for [E] Nowhere, I met up with a gambler.
We were both too tired to sleep, so we took turns of staring [A] at the window at the darkness
to what a [E] mob took us.
And he began to speak.
He said, son, I've made a life out of eating people's faces and doing what the cops were
by the way they held their eyes.
So if you don't mind me saying, I can see you're out of aces for a taste of whiskey.
I'll give you some advice.
So, so, so, so I handed him my bottle.
And he drank down my last swallow.
And he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
And the night got deathly quiet.
And his face lost all expression.
Said if you're gonna play the game, boy, you better learn to play it right.
You got no one to hold them, no one to hold them, no one to walk away, no one to run.
You'd better count your money.
[A] When you're sitting [E] at the table, there'll be time enough counting.
When the dealer's done, [F] now every gambler knows the secret to surviving is knowing what
to throw away, knowing what to keep.
Cost every hand a winner, and every hand's a loser.
And the best you can hope for is the light you see.
So I finished speaking.
He turned back toward the window, pushed down a cigarette, and ate it out of his teeth.
Somewhere in the darkness, [Bb] the gambler, [F] he broke even.
But in his fine words, I found, at least that I could, you got no one to hold them, no one
to walk away, no one to run.
You'd better count your money.
[Bb] When you're sitting [F] at the table, there'll be time enough counting.
When the dealer's done, you got no one to hold them, [Bb] no [F] one to hold them, no one to walk away,
no one to run.
You'd better count your money.
[Bb] When you're sitting at the table, there'll be time [F] enough counting.
When the dealer's done, you got no one to hold them, no one to hold them, no one to walk away,
no one to run.
You'd better count your money.
[Bb] When you're sitting [F] at the table, there'll be time enough counting.
When the dealer's done, you got to know, you got to know, [E] [F]
you got to know, you got to know,
you got to know.
Know when to walk away, you got to know.
Know when to walk away, you got to know, you got to know, you got to know, when the dealer's done.
When the dealer's done, you got to know, [Bb]
know [F] when to pull, know when to walk away, know when to run.
You'd better count your money.
