[Verse 1]
C# F#
He said, "Pardon me for being so bold,
C#
But you got a cigarette that's already rolled?"
F# C#
I gave him one, he lit it in his own good time
C# F#
The smoke in that poolroom hung like a fog
C#
When he talked, he sounded like a growling dog
F# C#
He said, "Would you care for a dollar on the five or the nine?"
C# F#
Now this man was ugly and his eyes were mean
C#
His clothes were dirty but his hands were clean
F# C#
He held that stick like a mother holds the hand of a child
C# F#
Well, I've been known to hustle a few
C#
When the waitress said, "Is he playing you?"
F# C#
And I said, "Yeah. Bring me brandy, water by."
D
[Verse 2]
D G
Well, Little Red Parker was way in the back
D
Taking quarters and handling racks
G D
And I told him, "Red, come up here. Glue 'em up tight."
D G
That brandy had me feeling warm
D
I tipped that waitress and I checked her form
G D
And I said, "Honey, you like a winner?" and she just smiled
D G
I played like a man with a broken wrist
D
I won two and he won six
G D
And I had him set up so I said, "Let's play for five."
D G
By this time a crowd had gathered around
D
To see this fish and just watch him drown
G D
I told that waitress, "More brandy, water by."
D#
[Verse 3]
D# G#
Then he went out and got a custom cue
D#
He said, "It's no offense to you,
G# D#
But I don't play off the wall with nobody but friends."
D# G#
It had gold initials and a leather grip
D#
Pearl and silver inlaid tip
G# D#
He smiled at me and he said, "Why don't we play for ten?"
D# G#
Well, I never seen a man that walk
D#
Who made those balls and table talk
G# D#
They're speaking English, he sure didn't need my help
D# G#
He broke the balls and kept that string
D#
For a hundred and eighty seven bucks and a ring
G# D#
'Til I gave up and said, "Friend, you're gonna have to play by yourself."

[Verse 4]
E A
Well, he sacked it up and he walked outside
E
And I strolled out just to watch him ride
A E
And there was a blonde in that Caddy built like the rest of that car
E A
The boys in the poolroom, they had 'em laughing
E
And I hung it up and just let it pass
A E
And didn't have a thing but my elbows to put on the bar
E A
And the waitress smiled, said, "Water by?"
E
I took the charity and I thanked her twice
A E
And sittin' there sippin' and suddenly I had me a thought
E A
Unlucky gambler and lucky in love
E
Guess you know what I was thinking of
A E
When I said, "Waitress, honey, what time do you get off?"
