Chorus:
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep 
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard 
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars  Yeah, we'll be counting stars

Verse 1:
I see this life, like a swinging vine Swing my heart across the line
And in my face is flashing signs Seek it out and ye shall find

Pre Chorus:
Old, but I'm not that old Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold On just doing what we're told
I feel something so right Doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong Doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
(2nd: Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly)
Chorus:

Verse 2: 
I feel your love and I feel it burn Down this river, every turn
Hope is our four-letter word Make that money, watch it burn

Pre Chorus:

Chorus:

Bridge:
Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned  4X

[Verse 1]
 
     G                          C               G
On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere,
  C               G                C                 D
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep.
   G                               C             G
So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness
     C           G        D               G
'til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
         G                             C                G
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,
    C                  G                 C                   D
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
       G                               C                 G
And if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces.
      C             G            D             G
For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
     G                           C                  G
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow. 
C                G             C              D
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
        G                                C                 G
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression.
                 C                    G             D                G
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           G                     C             G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C            G         C                D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
          G                            C              G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
                 C          G        D                 G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
 
 
[Verse 4] (transpose +1 here if you want to play it correctly)
 
G                             C             G
Ev'ry gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
   C               G              C               D
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
       G                         C              G
'Cause ev'ry hand's a winner and ev'ry hand's a loser,
        C                 G              D           G
and the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
 
 
[Verse 5]
 
    G                               C                       G
And when he'd finished speakin', he turned back towards the window,
C               G             C            D
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
    G                             C                 G
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even.
    C            G                D                G
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           G                     C             G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C            G         C                D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
          G                            C              G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
                 C          G        D                 G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
 
           G                     C             G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C            G         C                D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
          G                            C              G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
                 C          G        D                 G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
 
           G                     C             G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C            G         C                D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
          G                            C              G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
                 C          G        D                 G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
