Drunken Nights On The City Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse1

 I'll Ctell you a story about a night on the town,

 It started off drinking and Gfighting.

By the time a was through,

I'd near worn out my shoes,

 I had visited every known Cdive.

All the lights in the alley,

Fall dim on the ground,

 When your trying to see your way Fhome.

And the all night ladies,

 In their Cperfume so fine,

GWont leave a poor boy Calone.

Break

C F C Cadd9 C

Verse 2

 Well the Cpaths of the gambler

Are kneeded too thin,

 When the cards are all spread on the Gfloor.

The six and the seven,

I needed to win,

 And you cant call the bluff any Cmore.

So you stand to your feet,

And you figure discretly,

 The best way to pay what you Fowe.

And she hands you a line,

 Tells you Cthanks for the time,

 'You Gmight have brought brains to the Cshow.'

Chorus

 Drunken Fnights on the city,

 Are Cshowing their toes,

 They'll Ftake you for all that you Cowe.

 You Fcant judge a book,

 And you Ccant judge a crook,

GDown where the men, they cant Cgo.

Break

C F C Cadd9 C

Verse 3

 By Cearly the next morning,

I rose up to tight,

 My eyes were as red as the Glight.

My pockets were empty,

And so was my heart,

 And i promised to put things Cright.

So I went to the preacher,

I fell on my knees,

I asked the preacher,

 To right all my Fwrongs,

But he just shook his head,

 And looked Csorry when he said,

 'Youve Gbeen on the drink far too Clong'

Chorus x2
