[Intro] C [Verse 1]
C
The water's real cool and the water's real sweet

       C
Here's hoping that no points repeat

F
Because I bet against the chances that you'd ever be mine

C
Laid everything down on the don't pass line
[Chorus]
            G              F           C
And it's a stupid trick of fortune anyway

        G
But the lights are bright tonight

         F                                C
And your eyes shine tonight on Chesapeake Bay
[Break] C [Verse 2]
C
Walk through the water and our feet get wet

           C
And on the dark ended water I see your silhouette

F
Five dollars says that it's gone in a minute

C
Five dollars says that your heart goes with it
[Chorus]
       G               F             C
It's a stupid trick of fortune anyway

        G
But the lights are bright tonight

         F                                    C
And your eyes shine tonight on Chesapeake Bay
