INTRO: Am C

Down on my luck again
My well of hope run dry
Only one game left in town
And I’m down to my last dime

CHORUS:
I put all my money on you
Put all my money on you
Might be the final thing I do
Put all my money on you

Travel with the queen of hearts
Tucked inside my vest
Lucky sevens up my sleeve
And fate will do the rest

CHORUS:
I put all my money on you
Put all my money on you
Might be the hardest thing I do
Put all my money on you

I can’t work that sugar cane
Or pick that cotton field
Hold the cards between my hands
And pray that they will yield

CHORUS:
Put all my money on you
Put all my money on you
Might be the smartest thing I do
Put all my money on you

Casey’s men chased me down again
Again I steal away
Make another deal with god
This is the last game that I play

CHORUS:
Put all my money on you
Put all my money on you
Might be the truest thing I do
Put all my money on you

INSTRUMENTAL: D Am G Am D Am G Am

Preacher says, I’m a sorry man
A present to the game
When I win it big enough
I’ll come to you again
When I win it big, my love
I’m comin’ home___

CHORUS:
Put all my money on you
Put all my money on you
Might be the finest thing I do
Put all my money on you
When my gambling days are through
Put all my money on you___

INTRO: Em G D C Em G D C

Shall I speak of my beloved
Shall I speak of beauty rare
A face that shone like silver
A heart that shone like gold
A love as sure as wings of angels
Come to claim their children home

Shall I tell a sad, sad story
Of when my love I last did see
A smile that left me lonely
A happy day it seemed
And now I see my sweet love only
Walking through my dangerous dreams

INSTRUMENTAL: Em G D Em G D Em G D C Em G D C

Spring comes ‘round with small white flowers
Blooming, lie for now on the vine
And each year that I see them
Come shining up at me
Like a love that seldom lasts forever
They soon will fade and cease to be

Ohh, take me with you when you leave
Ohh, oh
Ohh, oh
Ohh, oh

Shall I speak of my beloved
Shall I speak of beauty rare
A face that shone like silver
A heart that shone like gold
A love as sure as wings of angels
Come to claim their children home

OUTRO:
Ohh, oh
Ohh, oh
Ohh, oh

Riding in from Wilmington, through fields of cottonwood
At the end of a three day journey, face of Angelina stood
Briars lie beneath her feet, a crown of (tangles) in her hair
Upon her face no trace of the girl, he left behind, did linger there

“My love I left you for to fight, I left you for the war
But a folly drove me far apart, kept me from your door
I procured a taste for liquor, oh, the gaming life
I should have returned to your side to claim you for my wife”

INTERLUDE: D-Am D-Am D Am G Am E7 Am

“Oh, tell me, oh, tell me, my dearest Angelilina
Who was it took your sweet smile, what did this, this day claim
The colour from your ruby lips, your (reddle) sets the place to shame
Who gave to you a baby, but did not give his name”

INSTRUMENTAL: D-Am D-Am D Am G Am E7 Am (2x)

“I will never tell you, I will take it to my grave
Who was it stole my young heart and carried it away
The ride of love did fall to dust, now it’s blackened up the sky
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I”

INTERLUDE: D-Am D-Am D Am G Am E7 Am

“The ride of love did fall to dust, now it’s blackened up the sky
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I
I will remain, my remembrance, my baby boy and I”

INTRO: D D7 G (2x)

I wish there was a drug for this
A quick and easy fix
I’m feeling it far too long
Just goes on and on
My hands shake, my body too
Someone tell me what to do
It started out and it felt like flu
I wish there was a drug for this

I wish there was a drug to take
To help me out, for heaven’s sake
Is there something for me now
To kill this ache somehow
Must be somewhere I can go
A doctor who would know
Didn’t know it was our last kiss
I wish there was a drug for this

Stand there ‘til the sun sinks low
Travel ‘round with nowhere to go
Running scenes inside my head
And cry ‘cause I’m feeling so bad
I’m on my knees, I’m on the floor
I hurt so much and I just want more
You’re the only one I need
I wish there was a drug for this

INSTRUMENTAL: C D C G D7 G

It wasn’t far from there to here
A ride in an open car
A night in the arms of what felt like love
It felt like love
We lifted up into the sky
Circled ‘round and ‘round so high
Then it was the ground I hit
I wish there was a drug for this

You’re the only one I miss
I wish there was a drug for this
Started out it felt like bliss
I wish there was a drug for this
Didn’t know it was our last kiss
I wish there was a drug for this

Better times will come
Better days will shine
Long nights be through
Love again be mine___

Dollars to spend
Warm winds to blow
The children be fed and
Good news to know___

Whoa, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

The boys will be home
The girls safe in bed
No wars to win and
Kind words be said___

Better times will come
Better days will shine
Long nights be through
Love again be mine___
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Better times will come
Better days will shine
Long nights be through
Love again be mine___
Whoa, oh, oh
