Roving Gambler

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]I am a roving gambler,
I've gambled down in town
Whenever I meet with a deck of
cards I lay my money down
Lay my [G]money [D]down, lay[G] my money dow[D]n
I had not been in Washington not
many more weeks than three
When I fell in love with a pretty little gal,
she fell in love with me
Fell in love with me, [G]fell in love with [D]me
She took me in her parlor,
she cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mother's ear,
"I love that gambling man''
Love that gamblin' man,
[G]love that gamblin' [D]man
"Daughter, oh dear daughter,
how can you treat me so?
To leave your dear old mother,
and with a gambler go?''
With a gambler go, with [G]a gambler g[D]o
I've gambled down in Washington; I've
gambled over in Spain
I'm goin' down to Georgia to
gamble my last game
Gamble my last game,
[G]gamble my last [D]game
"Oh mother, oh dear mother,
you know I love you well
But the love I have for this gambling man,
no human tongue can tell''
No human tongue can tell,
no [G]human tongue can [D]tell
"I hear that train a-coming,
coming coming 'round the curve
A-whistling and and a-blowing straining
straining every nerve"
Strainin' every nerve,
[G]strainin' every [D]nerve
"Mother, oh dear mother, I'll tell you if I can
If you ever see me comin' back,
I'll be with the gambling man
Be with the gambling man
[G]Be with the gambling [D]man"
I am a roving gambler,
I've gambled down in town
Whenever I meet with a deck of
cards I lay my money down
Lay my money down, [G]lay my money down

[Outro 1]
