Am Proved the points that I F needed proving,

Marching C in a G common D band D
Playing C songs of G hope, playing C songs of G peace
They're the C songs of D every G man D C

G God is C watching D us, God is watchGing Em us,

'Cause her Am hair was G black and her F eyes were C blue

As they Dgallantly Gfought, every B7one of them Emthought
Of Aloved ones back on the Dshore

VERSE 4
Then a Gflicker of light and they knew they were right
There she Cwas on the crest of a Bwave
She's an Cold fishing boat, and she's Gbarely aEmfloat
"Please A God, there are souls we can D save!"

CHORUS

Carry them Ghome, home, C home from the G sea

And back in the town, in a street that runs down
To the Csea and the harbour Gwall
They had Dgathered in Gpairs at the B7foot of the Emstairs
To Await for the radio Dcall

VERSE 6
And Gjust before dawn, when all hope was gone
Came a Chush and a faraway Bsound
'Twas the Ccox'n he roared, "All surGvivors on Emboard!"
Thank A God and we're homeward D bound

Lucille [G]Kenny Rodgers

Verse 1
G In a bar in Toledo across from the depot
On a barstool she took off her D7 ring
I Am thought I’d get closer so D7 I walked on over
I Am sat down and D7 asked her G name

Verse 2
When the drink finally hit her she said I’m no quitter
But I finally quit G7 living on C dreams
I’m D7 hungry for laughter and here ever after
I’m after whatever the other life G brings

Verse 3
In the mirror I saw him I closely watch him
I thought how he looked out of D7 place
He came Am to the woman who sat D7 there beside me
He Am had a strange D7 look on his G face

Verse 4
The big hands are callous he looked like a mountain
For a minute I G7 thought I was C dead
But D7 he started shaking his big heart was breaking
He turned to the woman and D7 said

Chorus
You picked the fine time to leave me LuCcille
Four hungry children and a crop in the G field
C I’ve had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting wouldn’t G heal
You picked a D7 fine time to leave me LuCcille

Verse 5
After he left us I ordered more whiskey
I how she made him look D7 small
From Am lights of the bar room to a D7 rented hotel room
We walked without talking at G all

Verse 6
She was a beauty but when she came to me
She must have thought G7 I’d lost my C mind
D7 I couldn’t hold her the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after G time

Chorus
You picked the fine time to leave me LuCcille
Four hungry children and a crop in the G field
C I’ve had some bad times, lived through some sad times
But this time your hurting wouldn’t G heal
You picked a D7 fine time to leave me LuCcille

The Gambler [C]Kenny Rogers

intro
C

On a C warm summer's evenin' on a F train bound for C nowhere,
I Fmet up with the C gambler; we were both too tired to G7 sleep.
So C we took turns a starin' out the F window at the C darkness
'til F boredom over C took us, and G7 he began to C speak.

He said, C "Son, I've made a life out of F readin' people's C faces,
and F knowin' what their C cards were by the way they held their G7 eyes.
And if C you don't mind my sayin', I can F see you're out of C aces.
For a F taste of your C whiskey I'll G7 give you some C advice."

So I C handed him my bottle
and he F drank down my last C swallow.
Then he Fbummed a cigarette and Casked me for a G7 light.
And the C night got deathly quiet,
and his F face lost all exCpression.
Said, "If you're F gonna play the C game, boy,
ya gotta G7 learn to play it C right.

You got to C know when to hold 'em, F know when to C fold 'em,
F know when to C walk away and know when to G7 run.
You never C count your money when you're F sittin' at the C table.
There'll be F time enough for C countin' G7 when the dealin's C done.

C Ev'ry gambler knows that the F secret to survCivin'
is F knowin' what to Cthrow away and knowing what to G7 keep.
'Cause C ev'ry hand's a winner and F ev'ry hand's a C loser,
and the F best that you can C hope for is to G7 die in your C sleep."

And C when he'd finished speakin', he F turned back towards the C window,
F crushed out his C cigarette and faded off to G7 sleep.
And C somewhere in the darkness the F gambler, he broke C even.
But F in his final C words I found an G7 ace that I could C keep.

You got to C know when to hold 'em, F know when to C fold 'em,
F know when to C walk away and know when to G7 run.
You never C count your money when you're F sittin' at the C table.
There'll be F time enough for C countin' G7 when the dealin's C done.

You got to C know when to hold 'em, F know when to C fold 'em,
F know when to C walk away and know when to G7 run.
You never C count your money when you're F sittin' at the C table.

That F never G7 takes a C chance
It's the Em7 one who won't be Am taken Am7
Who F cannot seem to G7 give
