A
I hear people talking about the line that I am walking
A E
How it won't lead to the palace of the wise
E
There the ones that say they love you, try and stay above you
E A
They'll twist your arm and make you tell a lie
A
But to me its a game of blackjack, go on and take a step back
A A7 D
Hold your breath and let that money ride
E
Cause the dealer he's got twenty and you'll bust if you take any
E A
So it never was for you to decide
Chorus:
D
Just put your chips out on the table
Bm E
Deal'em when your able to
D
And if you hit rock bottom,
Bm
Smoke'm if ya got'em
E
At least you know you played a hand
E A
And you can stand up to the man
I don't see the reason for the politics and treason
We're riding the same rail that will take us home
And the world is just a boxcar, preachers next to rock stars
It'll take you anywhere you need to roam
Ask about the gamblin�, interrupt their ramblin�
Make your way to the back of the train
Cast your bread out on the water, you good sons and daughters
You don't need a reason to explain
Chorus
