[Intro]
Em G C G x2
[Verse 1]
Em G C G Well, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night Em G C G And they blew up his house too Em G C G Down on the boardwalk, they're ready for a fight Em G D Gonna see what them racket boys can do Em G C G Now there's trouble busing in, from outta state Em G C G And the D.A. can't get no relief Em G C G Gonna be a rumble on the promenade Em G D And the gambling commissioner's hanging on by the skin of his teeth
[Chorus]
Em G C G Everything dies, baby, that's a fact Em G C G But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Em G C G Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty and Em G C G Meet me tonight, in Atlantic City
[Solo]
Em G C G x2
[Verse 2]
Em G C G Well, I got a job and I put my money away Em G C G But I got the kind of debt that no honest man can pay Em G C G So I drew out what I had from the Central Trust Em G D And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus
[Chorus]
Em G C G Everything dies, baby, that's a fact Em G C G But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Em G C G Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty and Em G C G Meet me tonight, in Atlantic City
[Solo]
Em G C G x2
[Bridge]
C Em Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold C D Em But with you, forever I'll stay C Em Yeah, we're going out where, the sand turns to gold D But put your stockings on, 'cause it might get cold
[Chorus]
Em G C G Oh, everything dies, baby, that's a fact Em G C G But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Em G C G Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty and Em G C G Meet me tonight, in Atlantic City
[Solo]
Em G C G x4
[Verse 3]
Em G C G Now I've been looking for a job but it's hard to find Em G C G There's winners and there's losers and I'm south of that line Em G C G Well, I'm tired of getting caught out on the losing end Em G D But I talked to a man last night, gonna do a little favor for him
[Chorus]
Em G C G Well, everything dies, baby, that's a fact Em G C G But maybe everything that dies someday comes back Em G C G Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty and Em G C G Meet me tonight, in Atlantic City Em G C G Oh, meet me tonight, in Atlantic City Em G C G Oh, meet me tonight, in Atlantic City
