In The Summer Time

Mungo Jerry

G

In the summertime when the weather is hot,

you can stretch right up and touch the sky,

C

when the weather's fine,

G

you got women, you got women on your mind.

D

Have a drink, have a drive,

C G

go out and see what you can find.

G

If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal,

if her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.

C G

Speed al ong the lane, do a ton or a ton and twenty- five.

D

When the sun goes down,

C G

you can make it make it good in a lay -by.

G

We're no threat, people, we're not dirty, we're not mean,

we love everybody but we do as we please.

C

When the weather's fine,

G

we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.

D

We're always h appy,

C G

life's for living, yeah, that's our philosoph y.

G

Sing a long with us, dee dee dee-dee dee

Dah dah dah-dah dah yeah we're hap-happy

C G

D

Da da da da ,

G

When the win ter's here, yeah, it's party-time,

bring a bottle, wear your bright clothes, it'll soon be summertime.

C G

And we'll sing again, we'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down.

D

If she's rich if she's nice,

C G

bring your friend and we will all go into town.

Repeat Verse 1, 2, 3 and then the diddles until fade out.

Gambler

Kenny Rogers C F C On a warm summer's evening on a train bound for nowhere

C C C G

I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to speak

C C F C

So we took turns a-starin' out the window at the darkness

F C G C

'Til boredom over took us and he began to speak.

He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,

Knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes,

And if you don't mind me sayin', I can see you're out of aces,

And for a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."

So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow;

Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light,

And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression,

' said "If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.

Ch:

C C

You got to know when to hold 'em,

F C

Know when to fold 'em,

F C

Know when to walk away

C G

And know when to run.

C C

You never count your money

F C

When you're sittin' at the table;

F C

There'll be time enough for countin'

G C

When the dealin's done.

(up a full step)

D D G D

Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'

D D D A

Is knownin' what to throw away and knowin' what to keep

D D G D

'Cause every hand's a winner, and every hand's a loser,

G D A D

And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."

And when he finished speakin', he turned back toward the window,

Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep,

And somewhere in the darkness, the gambler, he broke even,

But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.

You got to know when to hold 'em,

Know when to fold 'em,

Know when to walk away

And know when to run.

You never count your money

When you're sittin' at the table;

There'll be time enough for countin'

When the dealin's done.

I see trees of green, red roses too

Gm7 F A7 Dm

I see them bloom, for me and you,

Db Gm7/C C7 F F+ Bbmaj7 C7

I see skies of blue and clouds of white,

The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,

And I think to myself, what a wonderful world (F / Bb / / / F /)

C7 F

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky

C7 F

Are also on the faces of people goin' by

Dm C Dm C

I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"

Dm F#dim7 Gm7 F#dim7 Gm7 C7

They're really saying, "I love you." I hear

Babies cry, I watch them grow

They'll learn much more than I'll ever know,

And I think to myself what a wonderful world(F / Am7b5 / )

Oh the shark bites with his teeth dear,

G7 C6

And he shows them, pearly white.

Am7 Dm7

Just a jack-knife has old Mack Heath babe,

G7 C

And he keeps it outta sight.

C6 Dm7

You know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe,

G7 C6

Scarlet billows start to spread,

Am7 Dm7

Fancy gloves, though, wears Mack Heath babe,

G7 C6

So there's never, never a trace of red.

C6 Dm7

Now on the sidewalk, oh on Sunday morning (don't ya know)

G7 C6

Lies a body, just oozin' life,

Am7 Dm7

Yeah, someone's sneakin' 'round the corner,

G7 C6

Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

C6 Dm7

There's a tugboat down by the river, (don't 'cha know?)

G7 C6

With a cement bag, just-a droopin' on down.

Am7 Dm7

Oh, that cement is just for the weight, dear,

G7 C

Five'll get ya ten ol' Mackie's back in t own.

I know I keep you amused But I feel I'm being used

Em F#m Em Asus A

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

A G D

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age

A G D

But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything

G D G A

I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax

Em F#m Em Asus A

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

Em A Em A

You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone

Em A D

You stole my soul that's a pain I can do with out

A G D

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand

A G D

But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover you wore me out

G D G A

All you did was wreck my bed And in the morning kick me in the head

Em F#m Em Asus A

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

Em A Em A

You lured me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone

Em A D

You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

A G D

I suppose I should collect my books and get back to school

A G D

Or steal my daddy's cue make a living out of playing pool

G D G A

Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand

Em F#m Em Asus A

Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face

Em A Em A

You made a first class fool out of me, but I'm as blind as a fool can be

You stole my

heart but I

love

you anyway

Tom Jones Capo 1

Am E7

I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window

Am E7

I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind

A A7 Dm

She was my woman

Am E7 Am G7

As she deceived me

I

watched, and went out of

my mind

C G

My, my, my, De lilah

G B C

Why, why, why, De lilah

C C7 F Dm

I could see that girl was no good for me

C G C E7

But I was lost like a slave that no one could free

Am E7

At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting

Am E7

I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door

A A7 Dm

She stood there laughing

Am E7 Am G7

I felt the knife in my hand, and she laughed no more

C G

My, my, my, De lilah

G B C

Why, why, why, De lilah

C C7 F Dm

So be fore they come to break down the door

C G C E7

Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more

A A7 Dm

She stood there laughing

Am E7 Am G7

I felt the knife in my hand, and she laughed no more

C G

My, my, my, De lilah

Why, why, why, De lilah

C C7 F Dm

So be fore they come to break down the door
