D                            G
I was writing this down even as I got on the plane

       D                               A
Like a dealer, you can cash me out and everything

D
Thought you might sing along

        G
Yeah, I got it on the brain

               D                                   A
Something like I can fly, like paper planes in the pouring rain
[Pre-Chorus]
      Bm               G
And I don't know why I still howl at the moon

      D         A
But I do when I think of you

      Bm               G
And I don't know why I told you I'd see you soon

      D           A
But I will if you want me to
[Chorus]
D
Straight up poker for a couple of pennies

Bm                                     Em
Never made sense and I never made many friends

      A
And December was the coldest

    D
And I hate guns like I hate bad jokes

    Bm                                    Em
But steady hands and I blow smoke now and then

      A
Texas taught me how to hold 'em

    D                        Bm
The way I feel I might stay 'til you say good night, babe

Em                     A
Mio Babbino Caro, I'll jump into the ocean

    D                     Bm
The way I feel I might go play with you all night, no

   Em
My cards, I'll never show them

      A
Texas taught me how to hold 'em
[Verse 2]
D                               G
I was on your side of town just trying to chill

       D
Like a dealer, you can hit me back

         A
Oh, Lord knows you will

D                                G
Either way, I'm on a roll laying sideways on a hill

D                                    A
Either way, we're on a roll, we were rolling bills
[Pre-Chorus]
      Bm               G
And I don't know why I still howl at the moon

      D         A
But I do when I think of you

      Bm               G
And I don't know why I told you I'd see you soon

      D           A
But I will if you want me to
[Chorus]
