Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]He said, "Pardon me for bein' so [F]bold
But you got [C]a cigarette that's
already rolled"
I gave [F]him one,
he lit it in his own good [C]time
The smoke in that poolroom
[F]hung like a fog
[C]When he talked it sounded
like a growling dog
[F]He said, "Would you care for a dollar
on the five [C]or nine?"

[Verse 2]
Now this man [C]was ugly
and his [F]eyes were mean
His [C]clothes were dirty but
his hands were clean
He [F]held that stick like a mother holds
the hand [C]of her child
Well, I've been known [F]to hustle a few
When the [C]waitress said,
"Was he playing you?"
And I said, "Yeah,
[F]bring me brandy water by"
[C][Db]

[Verse 3]
Little Red Parker was [Gb]way in the back
[Db]taking quarters and handling racks
And I told [Gb]him, "Red, come up here,
glue 'em [Db]up tight
That brandy had me feel[Gb]ing warm,
I tipped that [Db]waitress
And I checked her form
And I [Gb]said, "Honey, you like a winner",
and she just smiled
[Db]

[Verse 4]
I played like a man with [Gb]a broken wrist,
[Db]I won two and he won six
And I had [Gb]him set up so I said,
"Let's play [Db]for five"
But this time the crowd
had gathered [Gb]round
To see [Db]this fish and just watch him drown
I told [Gb]that waitress,
"More brandy water [Db]by"
[D]

[Verse 5]
Then he went out and got a [G]custom cue
He [D]said, "It's no offense to you
But [G]I don't play off the wall
with nobody but friend[D]s"
He had a gold initials in a [G]leather grip
[D]pearly and silver inlaid tip
[G]He smiled at me and he said, "Hell-a-way,
we we we play [D]for ten"

[Verse 6]
Well, I [D]never seen a man [G]that walk who made
[D]those balls and table talk
They're [G]speaking English,
he sure didn't need my [D]help
He broke the ball and kep[G]t that string
For a hun[D]dred and eighty seven
bucks and a ring
Till I [G]gave up and said, "Friend,
you're gonna have to play by [D]yourself"
[Eb]

[Verse 7]
Well, he racked it up and [Ab]walked outside
And [Eb]I strolled out just to watch him ride
And there was a blond in their caddy
built [Ab]like the rest of that [Eb]car
The boys in the poolroom
they had 'em a [Ab]laugh
And [Eb]I hung it up and just let it pass
And [Abm]had nothin' but my
elbows [Ab]to put on the bar
[Eb]And

[Verse 8]
the waitress smiled said,
[Ab]"Water by?"
[Eb]I took the charity and thanked her polite
And [Ab]sittin' there sippin' and suddenly
I had me [Eb]a thought
Unlucky gambler and [Ab]lucky in love
[Eb]Guess you know what I was
thinking of
When I said waitress, "Hon[Ab]ey,
what time [Eb]you get off?"

[Outro 1]
[Eb]
