Artist/Band: James Hyland Tabs
Song: Riverboat Gambler Tab
D G
The riverboat gambler, he's tough and lean
D A
He washes his warm beer down with them nasty sardines
G A D G
He's been wearing that cowboy hat for much too long
D A G A
He hangs out in ole New Orleans, but when it's dawn
D G
He's out on the highway, headed for Lake Charles
D A
Riverboat gambler doesn't waste his little money in bars
G A D G
He's playing ol blackjack tied off of pier one
D A G A
He's hitting on seventeen, he's out having fun he says
D G
I'm the riverboat gambler
D G
I've got just one dream
D G
I'm gonna win the big one
D A
I'm gonna find my queen
But every night's the same, he can't seem to win
The cards don't fall right, them dice they ain't his friends
He's always betting red, right when the ball falls black
This old gambler knows there's no looking back, he says
Chorus
Bridge:
Bm A G D
Riverboat gambling that's all he knows
Bm A G A
He'll climb aboard that ship and he'll ride her wherever she goes
