G#(add9) That at the crux of every game C#7 Is knowing when it's time Gm7b5 To leave the table. Cm7 F9 And it's important to be artful Cm7 F9 In your exit D# No turning back, you must accept D#/G G#13 The con is done, F#maj7#11 But now and then, you might recall F9 The moments when you had it all C#9 You had the charm, You had the talent G7(no3) And, my God, you had some fun.

D#9#11 A7#9 Dm9 G9 It was a blast, it was a ball Dm9 G9 It was a gas, I loved it all F(add9) 'Cause I was hanging with the man E D# And that's a plus. Dm9 You've got the verve F You've got the guts A#(add9) You've go the nerve You've got the nuts! D#9 I guess we're dirty rotten crooks, Dirty rotten shnooks A7 A#7#5 Dirty rotten guys Oh D#7#9 G#9 It was a trip, it was a blast D#7#9 G#9 It was a shame it couldn't lsat F# 'Cause it was almost G#7 Too prodigious to discuss.
