E                 E7
I'm gettin' tired of runnin' round
A                        Am
Believe I'll get married and settle down
E
Cause this old night life
     C#7        C7
This mean old sportin' life
B7   E        B7      E
You know it's killing me

E              E7
I got a letter from my home
A           
Most of my good friends
Am
They are dead and gone
     E
You know it makes me worry
       C#7       C7
And it makes me wonder
B7  E      B7       E
About the times to come

E                   E7
Mother used to fall on her knees and pray
A                  Am
These are the very words she did say
E                     C#7       C7
She said "Oh Johnny, my lovin' Johnny...
B7     E          B7         E
Won't you please change your ways"

E                E7
I been a gambler and a cheater too
A                Am
Now it's come my time to lose
E
Cause this old sportin' life
     C#7                   C7
You know she's holdin' the best hand
B7   E    B7   E
And what can I do...

      E                 E7
Cause I'm gettin' tired of runnin' round
A                        Am
Believe I'll get married and settle down
E
Cause this old night life
 C#7   C7
It's a bad life
B7   E     B7    E      C#7 C7 B7 E B7 E
And it's killing me
