| F F6     |E7+9+5     | C D C Am7 
It's a beggars life, said the Queen of Spain



                        G/A 
But don't tell it to a poor man



             F6 
'Cause he's got to kill for every thrill


                    ^ ^ ^  ^ ^ 
    E7+9+5          C D      C
The best he can



 Am7 
Everywhere around me



                    G/A 
I see jealousy and mayhem



         Fmaj7 F6 
Because no men have all their peace of mind


                    ^ ^ ^  ^ ^ 
    E7+9+5          C D      C
To carry them


      Dm7 
Well I don't really care


         Em7 
If it's wrong or if it's right


       Fmaj7 
But until my ship comes in


           Em7 Dm7 G     | Am7        |          |
I'll live night by ni - ight




                        ^ ^ ^   ^ ^ 
| F F6     |E7+9+5     | C D C Am7 
When the joker tried to tell me


                        G/A 
I could cut it in this rube town


         Fmaj7 F6 
When he tried to hang that sign on me


                       ^ ^ ^  ^ ^ 
       E7+9+5          C D      C
I said Take it down


          Am7 
When the dawn patrol got to tell you twice

 
                            G/A 
They're gonna do it with a shotgun


          Fmaj7 F6         
Yes, I'm cashing in this ten-cent life


                    ^ ^ ^  ^ ^ 
    E7+9+5          C D      C
For another one


        Dm7 
Well I ain't got the heart


    Em7 
To lose another fight


      Fmaj7 
So until my ship comes in



 Em7 Dm7 G     | Am7        |          |
I'll live night by ni - ight



| G/A        | F/A         | G/A        | F/A         |

| Am7        |           | F F6     |E7+9+5     | C D C Dm7 
Well I don't really care


         Em7
