Capo on 3rd fret
G C
I met a gamblin’ man, I cooled him with my fan
Em D C
He’d just come in from Carroll, but only for a night or two
G C
And he was on a roll, shining like Pharaoh’s gold. He said
Em D G
Why don’cha put your little hand in the hand of the Gamblin’ Man
Em C G D Em C D C
Now if I lose, if I lose, let me lose, let me lose. If I lose, if I lose, let me lose.
G C
So I went to Mama’s house, yeah she tried to talk me out
Em D C
As she broke down hard ‘bout the houses in New Orleans
G C
She said you gotta listen Pearl, Hey you’re just a Jackson girl
Em D G
Now don’t you put your little hand in the hand of the Gamblin’ Man
Em C G D Em C D C
Now if I lose, if I lose, let me lose, let me lose. If I lose, if I lose, let me lose.
G C
And when my Dad got home, and gathered what was going on
Em D C
There was something in the color of his eyes went from sky to sea
G C
He said he’s going to treat you sweet and then he’ll leave you on Bourbon Street
Em D G
Now don’t you put your little hand in the hand of the Gamblin’ Man
Em C G D Em C D
But if I lose, if I lose, let me lose, let me lose. If I lose, if I lose, let me lose.
C G D
But maybe I’m a gambler too
G C
And that’s why I love the Gamblin’ man, I love to cool him with my fan
Em D C

And when he’s on a roll, and shining like Pharaoh’s gold
Em D C
