Tuning: EADGBE

A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
      A                                    E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me
           E
Well, the first time I lose a drink of whiskey

And the second time I lose a drink of gin,

Third time I lose a drink of anything
Cause I think I'm gonna win.
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
    A                                     E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me
A
Well, the queen of spades is a friend of mine

The queen of hearts is a bitch
A
Some day when I clean up my mind
A
I'll think I'm gonna win.
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
      A                                    E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me

A
Spend all night with a dealer

Just trying to get ahead,

Spend all day at the Holiday Inn

Just trying to get out of bed
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
A                                                  E
Ooh, Las Vegas ain't no place for a poor boy like me
       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
      A                                    E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me

       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
      A                                    E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me
       D
Ev'ry time I hit your crystal city
      A                                    E
You know you're gonna make a wreck out of me
