Chords

As recorded by Alice Cooper (From the 1978 Album FROM THE INSIDE) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
When I look back at my time at the track

A
And I played and I played and I played and I was

A
Shooting the craps at the back of Fat Jack's

A
Come on fade me Jake

      G
I'm a Las Vegas dreamer they took to the cleaners

G
A bath, what a bath, what a bath I'd take

  A
A fish on a hook I was rattled and shook 'cause I lost my stake

                     G D
I took that serious
[Chorus]
E
All of my life was a laugh and a joke

      A
And a drink and a smoke

                             E     G
And then I passed out on the floor

 A         D         E                   A
Again and again and again and again and again
[Verse 2]
      A
I'm a gambling fool with a roll and a cue

A
Wanna play, wanna play, wanna play with me

A
Put my ass on the line rubbed my nose in the grime

A
And they picked me clean

    G
The chance and the game drove Old Silky insane

G
What a pain what a strain on my brain it was

  A
A fish on a hook I was rattled and shook 'cause I lost my stake

                     G D
I took that serious
[Chorus]
E
All of my life was a laugh and a joke

      A
And a drink and a smoke

                             E     G
And then I passed out on the floor

 A         D         E                   A
Again and again and again and again and again
[Bridge]
C               G              A#      A   D
Serious, it was serious, oh so serious

C               G              A#      A
Serious, it was serious, oh so serious
[Out-Chorus]
E
All of my life was a laugh and a joke

  A
A drink and a smoke

                             E                  G
And then I passed out on the floor (Or a friend)

 A         D         A         E         C  B
Again and again and again and again and again

E
All of my life was a laugh and a joke

  A
A drink and a smoke

                             E                    G
And then I passed out on the floor (On the floor)

 A         D         E                   A
Again and again and again and again and again and again

     A#        C         A         D         E
And again and again and again and again and again

               A
And again and again
