Am
These tables are haunted
G
By the ghost of Las Vegas
Am
Their chips were once mountains
G Am
But they came here to play
Am C
They could take me if they wanted
G
But I have nothing worth counting
Am
And like the sands of Nevada
G Am
They go drifting away
Am
Lady luck's still a mystery
G
With her head on my shoulder
Am
And I don't know why
G Am
I still want her to dance
Am C
I guess that's all history
G
What it is is a I'm older
Am
And I'm still a fool
G Am
For a one-way romance
C
Her dice were red rubies
F G
They rolled and they tumbled
C
And I never saw time
F G
Running out with my roll
Am
And in the wasteland of cut glass
G
My dreams were crumbled
Am
And I've paid with whatever
G Am
I had left for a soul

Am
Now the dawn's broken even
G
On a empty horizon
Am
No reason for folding
G Am
No reason to stay
Am C
It's too soon to be leaving
G
Too late for criticizing
Am
And the sands of Nevada
G Am
They go drifting away
