[Verse 1]
A# D#
He said, "Pardon me for being so bold,
A#
But you got a cigarette that's already rolled?"
D# A#
I gave him one, he lit it in his own good time
A# D#
The smoke in that poolroom hung like a fog
A#
When he talked, he sounded like a growling dog
D# A#
He said, "Would you care for a dollar on the five or the nine?"
A# D#
Now this man was ugly and his eyes were mean
A#
His clothes were dirty but his hands were clean
D# A#
He held that stick like a mother holds the hand of a child
A# D#
Well, I've been known to hustle a few
A#
When the waitress said, "Is he playing you?"
D# A#
And I said, "Yeah. Bring me brandy, water by."
B
[Verse 2]
B E
Well, Little Red Parker was way in the back
B
Taking quarters and handling racks
E B
And I told him, "Red, come up here. Glue 'em up tight."
B E
That brandy had me feeling warm
B
I tipped that waitress and I checked her form
E B
And I said, "Honey, you like a winner?" and she just smiled
B E
I played like a man with a broken wrist
B
I won two and he won six
E B
And I had him set up so I said, "Let's play for five."
B E
By this time a crowd had gathered around
B
To see this fish and just watch him drown
E B
I told that waitress, "More brandy, water by."
C
[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."
C#
[Verse 4]
C# F#
Well, he sacked it up and he walked outside
C#
And I strolled out just to watch him ride
F# C#
And there was a blonde in that Caddy built like the rest of that car
C# F#
The boys in the poolroom, they had 'em laughing
C#
And I hung it up and just let it pass
F# C#
And didn't have a thing but my elbows to put on the bar
C# F#
And the waitress smiled, said, "Water by?"
C#
I took the charity and I thanked her twice
F# C#
And sittin' there sippin' and suddenly I had me a thought
C# F#
Unlucky gambler and lucky in love
C#
Guess you know what I was thinking of
F# C#
When I said, "Waitress, honey, what time do you get off?"
