A7#5#9     C/D            E7#9                 Bb/Eb
You were high, it was a crying disgrace (They saw your face)

       C9
On the counter by your keys was a book of numbers and your remedies

A7#5#9     C/D            E7#9
One of these surely will screen out the sorrow

           F#m7 (x2) E     Dmaj7       C/D (x2)                  Eb/F

You should know how all the pro's play the game

Bb/Eb
(You change your name)

Like a ganster on the run
You will stagger homeward to your precious one

Talk it out till daylight
