Everybody Pays
(Album: Shangri-La)


Capo: 2


Intro: D Bm G D D6 G D A D


D D6
I got shot off my horse
G
So what? I'm up again
And playing in one of these
D D6
Big saloons on main
G
You can come up here
A
Take a look
D D6
Around these sinners' dens
G
You're only ever going to find
A
One or two real games
G D
Nobody's driving
A G
Me underground
D A A7 A
Not yet anyway


D D6
But either on the strip
G
Or on the edge of town
Everybody pays
D
Everybody pays to play
D6 Bm
G D A


D
Yeah, you ought to stay
D6
Right where you are
G
In sawdust land
It's probably the
D D6
Safest place to be
G A
With your greasy little pork pies
D D6
And your shoestring hands
G A
It makes no difference to me
G D
All those directions
A G
Which we never took
D A A7 A
To go our different ways
D
Who went and wrote
D6 G
The oldest story in the book?
Everybody pays
D
Everybody pays to play
D6 Bm
G D A


Am B G/E A Dm G7/D C E
Am B G/E A Dm C A# A


D
Curl up inside
D6
A boxcar dream
G
And disappear
With a couple


D D6
Low roller friends
G
You were never one
A
For trouble
D D6
So get out of here
G
I knew the game
A
Was dangerous back then
G D
But nobody's breezing
A
Through these swinging doors
G A
Just ups and walks away
D D6
Everybody has to leave
G
Some blood here on the floor
Everybody pays
D D6 Bm
Everybody pays to play
G
Everybody pays

D D6 Bm G D A
