Intro
B
[Verse 1]
B E
He said, "Pardon me for being so bold,
B
But you got a cigarette that's already rolled?"
E B
I gave him one, he lit it in his own good time
B E
The smoke in that poolroom hung like a fog
B
When he talked, he sounded like a growling dog
E B
He said, "Would you care for a dollar on the five or the nine?"
B E
Now this man was ugly and his eyes were mean
B
His clothes were dirty but his hands were clean
E B
He held that stick like a mother holds the hand of a child
B E
Well, I've been known to hustle a few
B
When the waitress said, "Is he playing you?"
E B
And I said, "Yeah. Bring me brandy, water by."
C
[Verse 2]
C F
Well, Little Red Parker was way in the back
C
Taking quarters and handling racks
F C
And I told him, "Red, come up here. Glue 'em up tight."
C F
That brandy had me feeling warm
C
I tipped that waitress and I checked her form
F C
And I said, "Honey, you like a winner?" and she just smiled
C F
I played like a man with a broken wrist
C
I won two and he won six
F C
And I had him set up so I said, "Let's play for five."
C F
By this time a crowd had gathered around
C
To see this fish and just watch him drown
F C
I told that waitress, "More brandy, water by."

[Verse 3]
C# F#
Then he went out and got a custom cue
C#
He said, "It's no offense to you,
F# C#
But I don't play off the wall with nobody but friends."
C# F#
It had gold initials and a leather grip
C#
Pearl and silver inlaid tip
F# C#
He smiled at me and he said, "Why don't we play for ten?"
C# F#
Well, I never seen a man that walk
C#
Who made those balls and table talk
F# C#
They're speaking English, he sure didn't need my help
C# F#
He broke the balls and kept that string
C#
For a hundred and eighty seven bucks and a ring
F# C#
'Til I gave up and said, "Friend, you're gonna have to play by yourself."
D
[Verse 4]
D G
Well, he sacked it up and he walked outside
D
And I strolled out just to watch him ride
G D
And there was a blonde in that Caddy built like the rest of that car
D G
The boys in the poolroom, they had 'em laughing
D
And I hung it up and just let it pass
G D
And didn't have a thing but my elbows to put on the bar
D G
And the waitress smiled, said, "Water by?"
D
I took the charity and I thanked her twice
G D
And sittin' there sippin' and suddenly I had me a thought
D G
Unlucky gambler and lucky in love
D
Guess you know what I was thinking of
G D
When I said, "Waitress, honey, what time do you get off?"
