Moonlight Gambler Lyrics

Intro: ||: D - Bm7 | G - A7alt :||
SPOKEN:
You can gamble for match sticks, you can gamble for gold.
D Bm7 G A7alt
The stakes may be heavy or small.
D Bm7 G A7alt
But if you haven't gambled for love and lost,
D Bm7 G A7alt
You haven't gambled at all.
They call me a moonlight gambler
I've gambled for love and lost
When I gamble for love but it isn't in the cards
Oh, what heartaches it can cost me
Win or lose, I'm a moonlight gambler
And a winner is what I long to be
M7
So I'll gam - ble for love just as long as I live
Till the day Lady Luck smiles on me
Well, you can gam - ble for match sticks
You can gam - ble for gold
The stakes may be heavy or small
But if you haven't gam - bled for love and lost
Then you haven't gam - bled at all
No, if you haven't gam - bled for love in the moonlight
Then you haven't gam - bled at all
M7
So I'll gam - ble for love just as long as I live
Till the day Lady Luck smiles on me
They call me the moonlight gambler
They call me the moonlight gambler
