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