        Re                        Sol/Re             Re 
On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere, 
 Re                                                           La 
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep. 
    Re                                Sol/Re              Re 
So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness 
      Sol/Re              Re   La                     Re        
'til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak. 
 
           Re                            Sol/Re                Re
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces, 
                                                               La 
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes. 
         Re                             Sol/Re                 Re
And if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces. 
       Sol/Re             Re                          La      Re
For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice." 
        Re                          Sol                   Re 
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow.  
                                                La 
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light. 
          Re                                Sol               Re 
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression. 
                   Sol                   Re              La                     Re 
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right. 
 
Chorus:  
            Re                       Sol              Re 
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, 
Sol               Re                        La 
know when to walk away and know when to run. 
            Re   Mim/La   Re                 Sol              Re
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table. 
                    Sol          Re     La             
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done. 
 
 
Re                              Sol              Re 
Ev'ry gambler knows that the secret to survivin' 
                                                    La 
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep. 
        Re                          Sol              Re  
'Cause ev'ry hand's a winner and ev'ry hand's a loser, 
        Sol                 Re              La           Re 
and the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep." 
    Re                               Sol                       Re
And when he'd finished speakin', he turned back towards the window, 
                                                 La   
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep. 
    Re                             Sol                 Re 
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even. 
    Sol                  Re          La    
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep. 
 
Chorus 2x and end...
