       Am
These tables are haunted

         G
By the ghost of Las Vegas

        Am              
Their chips were once mountains

          G             Am
But they came here to play

            Am              C
They could take me if they wanted

            G
But I have nothing worth counting

              Am
And like the sands of Nevada

          G        Am
They go drifting away

      Am
Lady luck's still a mystery

          G
With her head on my shoulder

    Am
And I don't know why

         G           Am
I still want her to dance

   Am               C
I guess that's all history

        G
What it is is a I'm older

    Am
And I'm still a fool

      G          Am
For a one-way romance

     C
Her dice were red rubies

      F               G
They rolled and they tumbled

       C
And I never saw time

        F            G
Running out with my roll

            Am
And in the wasteland of cut glass

     G
My dreams were crumbled

          Am  
And I've paid with whatever

       G          Am
I had left for a soul

         Am
Now the dawn's broken even

     G
On a empty horizon

    Am
No reason for folding

    G          Am
No reason to stay

          Am         C
It's too soon to be leaving

     G
Too late for criticizing

         Am
And the sands of Nevada

          G        Am
They go drifting away
