As recorded by Midland (2024 release) [Intro] D Dmaj7 G A D [Verse 1]
D                      Dmaj7                 G                    D
Feeding slot machines, drinking free drinks, we struck up a conversation

            G                 F#m                        Em                          A
Said, "This town really ain't my kind of thing, but it's great if you got time needs wasting"

      D                      Dmaj7         G                  D
And before I knew what I was getting into, we were off to the races

            G               F#m
Yeah, three short days flew by in a haze

         Em                  A
But that weekend still ain't fading
[Chorus]
            D                            G             A       D
That's what happens when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas

          G                   F#m                     Em                 A
Yeah, you play to win but you lose and then she's the only thing you can think of

      D                                            G          A          D
Yeah, you bet it all, but your ace don't fall, the bank ain't all that's breaking

                G                 F#m        Em            A       D
But that's what happens when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas
[Verse 2]
D                               Dmaj7                G               D
Yeah, that Southwest plane just wouldn't run late in spite of all my praying

      G                       F#m              Em7                D      A
And I like to think she was a second away from turning around and staying

           D                                    G                        D
Yeah, that TV screen still tortures me, those commercials they're always playing

                Gm                 F#m                Em                        A
That's how they get you to go, but what do they know? They ought to change that saying
[Chorus]
            D                            G             A       D
That's what happens when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas

          G                   F#m                     Em                 A
Yeah, you play to win but you lose and then she's the only thing you can think of

      D                                            G          A          D
Yeah, you bet it all, but your ace don't fall, the bank ain't all that's breaking

                G                 F#m        Em            F#m     G
But that's what happens when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas
[Pedal Steel Solo] F#m Em A D [Outro]
      D                                            G          A          D
Yeah, you bet it all, but your ace don't fall, the bank ain't all that's breaking

                G                 F#m        Em            A       D
But that's what happens when what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas

           G             A       Gm      D
Yeah, when Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas
