Verse 1
Well, they [Em]blew up the [G]chicken man in [C]Philly last [G]night
And they [Em]blew up his [G]house, [C]too[G].
[Em]Down on the [G]boardwalk they're [C]ready for a [G]fight
Gonna [Em]see what them [G]racket boys can [C]do.[G]
Now there's [Em}trouble busin' [G]in from [C]outta [G]state
And the [Em]D.A. can't [G]get no [C]relief[G].
[Em]Gonna be a [G]rumble on the [C]promenade[G]
And the [Em]gamblin' [G]commissioner's hangin' on by the [D]skin of his teeth.

Chorus 1
[Em]Everything [G]dies, baby [C]that's a [G]fact
But [Em]maybe everything that [G]dies some [C]day comes [G]back.
Put your [Em]makeup [G]on, fix your [C]hair up [G]pretty

Well, I [Em]got a [G]job and I put my [C]money [G]away
But I [Em]got the kind of [G]debts that no [C]honest man can [G]pay.
So I [Em]drew out what I [G]had from the [C]Central [G]Trust
And I [G]bought us two [G]tickets on that [D]Coast City bus.

Now our [C]luck may have died and our [Em]love may be cold
But with [C]you [D]forever I'll [Em]stay.
We'll be [C]goin' out where the [Em]sands turn to gold
But put your [D]stockings on 'cause it might get cold.

Chorus 3
[Em]Everything [G]dies, baby [C]that's a [G]fact
