The Gambler by Kenny Rogers Guitar Chords


Verse 1
On a
E
warm summer’s evenin’ on a
A
train bound for
E
nowhere,
I
A
met up with the
E
gambler; we were
A
both too tired to
B
sleep.
So
E
we took turns a starin’ out the
A
window at the
E
darkness
’til
A
boredom over-
E
took us,
B
and he began to
E
speak.
 
Verse 2
He said,
E
”Son, I’ve made a life out of
A
readin’ people’s
E
faces,
and
A
knowin’ what their
E
cards were by the
A
way they held their
B
eyes.
And if
E
you don’t mind my sayin’, I can
A
see you’re out of
E
aces.
For a
A
taste of your
E
whiskey I’ll
B
give you some
E
advice.”
 
Verse 3
So I
E
handed him my bottle and he
A
drank down my last
E
swallow.
A
Then he bummed a
E
cigarette and
A
asked me for a
B
light.
And the
E
night got deathly quiet, and his
A
face lost all ex-
E
pression.
Said, “If you’re
A
gonna play the game,
E
boy, ya gotta
B
learn to play it
E
right.
 
Chorus
You got to
E
know when to hold ’em,
A
know when to
E
fold ’em,
A
know when to
E
walk away
A
and know when to
B
run.
You never
E
count your money when you’re
A
sittin’ at the
E
table.
There’ll be time
A
enough for
E
countin’
B
when the dealin’s
E
done.

Ev’ry gambler knows that the

vivin’
is
A#
knowin’ what to
