Intro
G
[Verse 1]
G C
He said, "Pardon me for being so bold,
G
But you got a cigarette that's already rolled?"
C G
I gave him one, he lit it in his own good time
G C
The smoke in that poolroom hung like a fog
G
When he talked, he sounded like a growling dog
C G
He said, "Would you care for a dollar on the five or the nine?"
G C
Now this man was ugly and his eyes were mean
G
His clothes were dirty but his hands were clean
C G
He held that stick like a mother holds the hand of a child
G C
Well, I've been known to hustle a few
G
When the waitress said, "Is he playing you?"
C G
And I said, "Yeah. Bring me brandy, water by."
G#
[Verse 2]
G# C#
Well, Little Red Parker was way in the back
G#
Taking quarters and handling racks
C# G#
And I told him, "Red, come up here. Glue 'em up tight."
G# C#
That brandy had me feeling warm
G#
I tipped that waitress and I checked her form
C# G#
And I said, "Honey, you like a winner?" and she just smiled
G# C#
I played like a man with a broken wrist
G#
I won two and he won six
C# G#
And I had him set up so I said, "Let's play for five."
G# C#
By this time a crowd had gathered around
G#
To see this fish and just watch him drown
C# G#
I told that waitress, "More brandy, water by."
A
[Verse 3]
A D
Then he went out and got a custom cue
A
He said, "It's no offense to you,
D A
But I don't play off the wall with nobody but friends."
A D
It had gold initials and a leather grip
A
Pearl and silver inlaid tip
D A
He smiled at me and he said, "Why don't we play for ten?"
A D
Well, I never seen a man that walk
A
Who made those balls and table talk
D A
They're speaking English, he sure didn't need my help
A D
He broke the balls and kept that string
A
For a hundred and eighty seven bucks and a ring
D A
'Til I gave up and said, "Friend, you're gonna have to play by yourself."
A#
[Verse 4]
A# D#
Well, he sacked it up and he walked outside
A#
And I strolled out just to watch him ride
D# A#
And there was a blonde in that Caddy built like the rest of that car
A# D#
The boys in the poolroom, they had 'em laughing
A#
And I hung it up and just let it pass
D# A#
And didn't have a thing but my elbows to put on the bar
A# D#
And the waitress smiled, said, "Water by?"
A#
I took the charity and I thanked her twice
D# A#
And sittin' there sippin' and suddenly I had me a thought
A# D#
Unlucky gambler and lucky in love
A#
Guess you know what I was thinking of
D# A#
When I said, "Waitress, honey, what time do you get off?"
