Whoa___________ohhh

                                      E
All the young adolescents with their phony ID
         F#                             D
And the best dressed out lookin' for someplace to be
                A
They're all listening to the gambler
       E                         D 
Who's too far gone too feel any pain



         A                               E
He says next to drinking gambling is his only vice
         F#                        D
Then it takes him half an hour to roll the dice
      A                          
He says he's a gambler 
      E                              D
but he's barely got the cards for a game



       A                E              F#
Cho.. Then the gambler lays his money down
       A                E              F# 
      Then the gambler slowly turns around
                 A                     E
      And says I may be a loser but I play the game
                F#                              D
      And this money says that no one here can say the same
                A                            E                  D
      Put your cards on the table, call the waiter for another round
                A
      Call the waiter

A                                     E  
Well it's ablank cheque stacked deck life that he leads
     F#                    D

    A                           E                           D
He says he's a gambler but he's barely got the cards for a game
        A                            E                          D
Well He says he's a gambler but he's barely got the cards for a game
        A                            E                          D 
Well He says he's a gambler but he's barely got the cards for a game
