[E]
[G#]
[A]
I'm gonna set my soul on fire.
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn.
So get those stakes up high.
[F#] There's a thousand pretty women who ain't [F#m] not fair.
[F#] They're all waiting, they never make care.
And I've picked a devil with a lot to spare.
[D] So Viva [A] Las Vegas!
[D] Viva [A] Las Vegas!
[D] Viva [A] Las Vegas!
How I wish that there were more than the 24 hours in the day.
But if I ran at a speed, boy, I would sleep a minute away.
Pull [F#] the blackjack, or grab the roulette wheel.
I'm pushing money, lost on every deal.
All you need is sonar and nerves of steel.
[D] So Viva Las [A] Vegas!
[D] Viva [A] Las Vegas!
[D] Viva [A] Las Vegas!
[F#] Viva Las Vegas, where the neon's aren't flashing.
Ain't no one-armed bandit crashing.
[A] All those hos down the drain.
[F#] Viva Las Vegas, turn the day into night.
Come turn the night into daytime.
[B] If you see it once, you'll never be the [E] same again.
I [A] don't care if I'm running, gonna have me some money.
I'll spend my very last dime.
If I wind up broke, then I'll always remember that I had a swingin' dime.
[F#] Oh, I could've given everything I got.
And they'd have slept with me, nice and hot.
I'd cook up a note to fly away the sky.
[D] So Viva [A] Las Vegas!
