[Verse 1]
G#                             C#                     G#
On a warm summer's evening, on a train bound for nowhere
C#                   G#                Fm                   D#
I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to sleep
G#                             C#                       G#
So we took turns a-staring out the window at the darkness
C#                      G#     D#                G#
The boredom overtook us and he began to speak
            G#                        C#                         G#
He said, "Son, I've made my life out of reading people's faces
Fm                     G#                   Fm                     D#
And knowing what the cards were by the way they held their eyes
G#                                       C#                   G#
So if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces
C#                     G#           D#                    G#
For a taste of your whiskey, I'll give you some advice"
G#                                   C#                    G#
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow
Fm                  G#              Fm               D#
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light
G#                                          C#                    G#
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression
         C#                           G#                     D#                 G#
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, you gotta learn to play it right"
 
[Chorus]
G#                                   C#                    G#
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em
C#               G#          Fm              D#
Know when to walk away, know when to run
            G#       D#      G#                   C#               G#
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table
             C#                  G#                    D#         G#
There'll be time enough for countin', when the dealin's done
 
[Verse 2]
G#                            C#                  G#
Now, every gambler knows, the secret to survivin'
Fm                   G#             Fm                D#
Is knowing what to throw away, knowing what to keep
        G#                           C#                G#
'Cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser
         Fm             G#                  D#             G#
And the best you can hope for, is to die in your sleep
 
G#                                 C#                           G#
So when he'd finished speakin', he turned back toward the window
Fm                     G#           Fm             D#
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep
G#                                      C#                  G#
Then somewhere in the darkness, the gambler he broke even
C#                   G#                   D#                  G#
But in his final words, I found an ace that I could keep
 
[Chorus]x3
G#                                   C#                    G#
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em
C#               G#          Fm              D#
Know when to walk away, know when to run
            G#       D#      G#                   C#               G#
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table
             C#                  G#                    D#         G#
There'll be time enough for countin', when the dealin's done
