Intro: D Bm G D D6 G D A D


D                      D6 
I got shot off my horse
             G 
So what? I'm up again
And playing in one of these
               D   D6 
Big saloons on main
        G 
You can come up here
A 
Take a look
             D            D6 
Around these sinners' dens
       G                         
You're only ever going to find
                A
One or two real games
G        D 
Nobody's driving
   A           G
Me underground
D          A    A7 A
Not yet anyway


    D                  D6 
But either on the strip 
          G
Or on the edge of town
Everybody pays 
                  D 
Everybody pays to play
D6 Bm 
G D A


D 
Yeah, you ought to stay
      D6 
Right where you are
   G 
In sawdust land
It's probably the
                D  D6
Safest place to be
          G             A
With your greasy little pork pies
         D               D6 
And your shoestring hands 
G                         A
It makes no difference to me
G           D 
All those directions
         A         G
Which we never took
   D                A   A7 A
To go our different ways
D                           
Who went and wrote
D6               G
The oldest story in the book?
Everybody pays
                  D 
Everybody pays to play

D
Curl up inside
  D6
A boxcar dream
    G
And disappear
With a couple


           D      D6
Low roller friends
         G
You were never one
    A
For trouble
       D          D6
So get out of here
  G
I knew the game
                   A
Was dangerous back then
    G        D
But nobody's breezing
              A
Through these swinging doors
G                  A
Just ups and walks away
D                D6
Everybody has to leave
                G
Some blood here on the floor
Everybody pays 
                  D   D6 Bm 
Everybody pays to play
G 
Everybody pays
