Atlantic City Bruce Springsteen
Capo on third fret
(this is the way Levon Helm plays it)
Well, they [Em]blew up the [G]chicken man in [C]Philly last [G]night
Now, they [Em]blew up his [G]house, too[C] [G]
Dow[Em]n on the [G]boardwalk they're gettin' [C]ready for a [G]fight
Gonna[Em] see what [G]them racket boys can [C]do[G]
Now, there's [Em]trouble bus[G]tin' in from [C]outta [G]state
And the[Em] D.A. can'[G]t get no rel[C]ief[G]
Gonna be a [Em]rumble [G]out on the [C]prome[G]nade
And the [Em]gamblin' commi[G]ssion's hangin' on by the [C]skin of his [D]teeth
Chorus:
Well now, [Em]ev'rything [G]dies, baby, [C]that's a [G]fact
But maybe [Em]ev'rything that [G]dies some[D]day comes [Em]back
Put your makeup [G]on, fix your [C]hair up [G]pretty
And [Em]meet me t[G]onight in At[C]lantic C[G]ity
[Em] [G] [C] [G]
Well, I [Em]got a j[G]ob and tried to put my [C]money a[G]way
But [Em]I got debts that [G]no honest [C]man can [G]pay
So I [Em]drew what I [G]had from the Ce[C]ntral [G]Trust
And I [Em]bought us two [G]tickets on that [C]Coast City [G]bus
Chorus:
Well now, [Em]ev'rything [G]dies, baby, [C]that's a [G]fact
But maybe [Em]ev'rything that [G]dies some[D]day comes [Em]back
Put your makeup [G]on, fix your [C]hair up [G]pretty
And [Em]meet me t[G]onight in At[C]lantic C[G]ity
[D]Now our[C] luck may have died and our[Em] love may be cold
But[C] with you [D]forever I'll [Em]stay
We're [C]goin' out where the sand's[Em] turnin' to gold
[C]Put on [G]your stockin's baby, `cause[C] the night's [G]gettin' cold
And [C]maybe ev'rything [G]dies, baby, [C]that's a [G]fact
But maybe [C]ev'rything that [G]dies some[D]day comes [C]back
[Em] [G] [C] [G]
Now, [Em]I been [G]lookin' for a job, but it's [C]hard to[G] find
Down her[Em]e it's [G]just winners and [C]los[G]ers
And don'[Em]t get c[G]aught on the wrong [C]side of that [G]line
Well, I'm [Em]tired of [G]comin' out on the [C]losin' [G]end
So, hone[Em]y, last night [G]I met this guy, gonna do a little [C]favor for [G]him
Chorus:
Well now, [Em]ev'rything [G]dies, baby, [C]that's a [G]fact
But maybe [Em]ev'rything that [G]dies some[D]day comes [Em]back
Put your makeup [G]on, fix your [C]hair up [G]pretty
And [Em]meet me t[G]onight in At[C]lantic C[G]ity
