[C#m] There once was a gambler [A] and Wesley was [E] his name
[A] the chance to play [E] his game
[A] surrounded [G#m] his eyes so [A] they say [G#m] like the highways [A] he traveled on [E] his way
a lady [A] who stopped the rest [E] of us
[C#m] As weary of the rounders as [A] she was of the [E] miles
On [C#m] that hot dusty [A] day [G#m] as she watched him [A] at his place.
