The Gambler by Kenny Rogers C
F
C On a warm summer's evening on a train bound for nowhere
G7 I met up with the gambler we were both too tired to sleep
C
F
C So we took turns a staring out the window at the darkness
F
C
G7
C Till boredom overtook us and he began to speak
F
C He said Son I've made a life out of reading people's faces
G7 And knowing what their cards were by the way they held their eyes
C
F
C And if you don't mind my saying I can see you're out of aces
F
C
G7 C For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice
F
C So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow
G7 Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light
C
F
C And the night got deathly quiet and his face lost all expression
F
C
G7
C Said if you're gonna play the game boy ya gotta learn to play it right
F C You got to know when to hold 'em know when to fold 'em F
C
G7 know when to walk away and know when to run
C
F
C You never count your money when you're sitting at the table
F
C
G7
C There'll be time enough for counting when the dealings done
F
C Every gambler knows that the secret to surviving
G7 Is knowing what to throw away and knowing what to keep
C
F
C Cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser
F
C
G7 C And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep
F
C And when he'd finished speaking he turned back towards the window
G7 Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep
C
F
C And somewhere in the darkness the gambler he broke even
F
C
G7
C But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep
