CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO:: G+G D MajorD  C majorC D MajorD G+G

VERSE 1::
    C majorC           G+G        C majorC
Pardon me if I'm leaving in a hurry can't you see
      G+G        C majorC      G+G   D MajorD
There's too much to lose for me to stay around
   E minorEm         C majorC          G+G        C majorC
I've played your game, obeyed your rules the best that I know how
   G+G         D MajorD         G+G
Gonna get out while the game don't get me down

CHORUS::
            B7B7        C majorC   G+G
It's been a long, long day and now it's gone, gone
                 D MajorD
I won't see you again before the dawn
      C majorC              G+G C majorC
There's too much to lose for me to stay around
    G+G        D MajorD          G+G
So I'll just cash in the chips and leave this town


INTERLUDE:: D MajorD  C majorC D MajorD G+G


VERSE 2::
    C majorC             G+G      C majorC
Pardon me if I don't turn back or even say goodbye
 G+G       C majorC         G+G  D MajorD
I surely have enjoyed your cup of tea
  E minorEm       C majorC      G+G          C majorC
Got no more time to gamble on a thing that ain't too sure
    G+G         D MajorD        G+G
And the dust cloud on the edge of town is me


VERSE 3::
    C majorC                 G+G        C majorC
If you ever feel that you should want to get in touch somehow
  G+G       C majorC      G+G  D MajorD
Forget it, that's all in yesterday
  E minorEm      C majorC     G+G       C majorC
Forgiving is to lovers, as trusting is to fools
    G+G        D MajorD       G+G
And of losing there is nothing I can say

CHORUS::
            B7B7        C majorC   G+G
It's been a long, long day and now it's gone, gone
                 D MajorD
I won't see you again before the dawn
      C majorC              G+G C majorC
There's too much to lose for me to stay around
    G+G        D MajorD          G+G
So I'll just cash in the chips and leave this town


CHORUS::
            FF        C majorC   G+G
It's been a long, long day and now it's gone, gone
                 D MajorD
I won't see you again before the dawn
      C majorC              G+G C majorC
There's too much to lose for me to stay around
    G+G        D MajorD          G+G
So I'll just cash in the chips and leave this town
              D MajorD          G+G
Well, I'll just cash in the chips and leave this town
