Dm7 C Dm7 x2
Gm7 Am7 Dm7 x2
[Dm7]You've got your [C]ticket and your [Bb]hotel keys
And your [Gm7]overnight [Am7]bag at your fe[Dm7]et
[Dm7]YOu're looking d[C]own on the tropi[Bb]cal trees
While the[Gm7] Spanish m[Am7]aids pick up t[Dm7]he sheets
[F]Conquist[C]ador in [F]search of [C]gold
[Dm7]For all the j[Bb]ack-daw r[Gm7]easons
[Dm7]The Midas shadow[C] that's so hard [Bb]to please
[Gm7]Follows wh[Am7]erever you g[Dm7]o.
Gm7 Am Dm7 x2
[Dm7]Nothing ventured[C], nothing gained[Bb] they said
So you pl[Gm7]ayed for t[Am7]he winner take[Dm7]s all
[Dm7]And tossed the d[C]ice high up and [Bb]craned your head
To see[Gm7] how the n[Am7]umbers would f[Dm7]all
[F]You stol[C]e the ga[F]me so easi[C]ly
[Dm7]Your luck ran[Bb] with the[Gm7] seasons
[Dm7]But still the sh[C]adow that the ni[Bb]ght won't free just
[Gm7]Follows [Am7]wherever you [Dm7]go.

As you wa[Gm7]it for you[Am7]r seat on the [Dm7]'plane
[Dm7]The movie runs b[C]ut you're still [Bb]working hard
And you d[Gm7]on't touch[Am7] your food or [Dm7]champagne
[F]I know t[C]hat when[F] your well[C] runs dry
[Dm7]Yuu'll want t[Bb]o know th[Gm7]e reason
