Gamblers Prayer

	  		

A 
Lord hear my prayer 
E 
Look down on me 
D                     A 
I'm not as wealthy as I used to be 
     Bm                   F#m 
It's not even ten and I'm busted again 
D                       E 
Why does this happen to me? 
A 
Give me a sign 
E 
Show me you care 
D                              A 
A straight to the Ace Lord, or even a pair 
        Bm                     F#m 
I can't make it alone and I'll sink like a stone 
       D                      E 
Unless you can undo what I've done 


   D                       A 
So Lord lift me up in your tender embrace 
D                         A 
Lend me your wisdom, your strength and your grace 
D          Adim     A          Abdim F#m 
Help me to smash my opponent's fat   face 
        D            E             A   E 
Oh Lord help me take money from my friends 

A E Eaug 

A 
Deep down I know 
          E 
That it's only a game 
    D                      A 
But I want them shaking in terror and shame 
          Bm 
It's just poker and beer 
        F#m 
Still I need them to fear me Lord 
D                       E 
It's not enough just to win 

D                           A 
Deal me good cards and I'll handle the math 
D                            A 
We'll take their money while they take a bath 
     D            Adim(x01212)    A         Abdim F#m 
I'll show them my hand and you'll show them your  wrath 
        D            E             A   E    
 E 
Oh Lord help me take money from my friends 

F#m                 C#aug (x4322x)*** 
And I don't want to cheat them 
A                       B7 
Because I know that's a sin 

(fingerpick on D string: 2,3) 

F#m              C#aug 
I just want to defeat them 
            A           B7 
And make it hurt when I win 
        D           E     Eaug 
Make it hurt when I win... 


   A 
So poke them with sticks 
    E 
And crush them with stones 
D                          A 
Chew them up good Lord and spit out their bones 
     Bm                     F#m 
Make my riches grow and let those bitches know 
         D                       E 
That you hate them and love only me 
D                      A 
Burn it all down until nothing survives 
D                        A 
Make them regret for the rest of their lives 
    D             Adim      A        Abdim F#m 
The day that they bet their dogs and their wives 
        D            E 
Oh Lord help me take money from 
D            E 
Help me take money from 
D            E             A    E   A    
  A 
Help me take money from my friends
