Verse
  G+G      G/F#       F7F7        E7E7
My father was a gambler, he threw horseshoes at the moon
  C majorC   G+G          Em/F#      C majorC
He won a million dollars, and lost a million, too
                G+G         C majorC
They repossessed the house, and towed that Cadil- lac
  A minorAm       E MajorE           FF        F#F#
My daddy, he just smiled and said, "One day I'll win it back"

  G+G         G/F#      F7F7      E7E7
My daddy bought that Cadillac off a Detroit motor line
    C majorC          G+G       Em/F#      C majorC
Then he drove it through his home town, to prove he hit his prime
                G+G         C majorC
With hundred dollars bills in a Saint Chris money clip
  A minorAm         E MajorE         FF        F#F#  D MajorD
And four kids starrin' proudly from that big ole sinkin' ship
              E minorEm
Throwin' horseshoes at the moon

      C majorC      G+G
Boys, it's mighty risky odds
   C majorC         G+G        F#F#          E MajorE
Some- times ya hook the milky way or the outstretched hands of God
  C majorC              G+G       C majorC
But mostly they just fall into a dark and dusty hole
    A minorAm        E MajorE      FF        F#F#  D MajorD
And the sound of fallin' horse shoes pulls upon your soul
              E minorEm
Throwin' horse shoes at the moon

My daddy was a gambler but he had an honest heart
  C majorC       G+G       Em/F#        C majorC
He never did com- plain when the whole thing fell a- part
                     G+G         C majorC
He just swam that sea of alcohol till he reached the other side
  A minorAm     E MajorE      FF        F#F#   D MajorD
How can ya be a loser if you never loss your pride?
              E minorEm
Throwin' horse shoes at the moon

Boys, it's mighty risky odds
