Lyrics
Capo on 2nd fret (below are just chord shapes), actual chords are: (F#m=(em), a=(g), d=(c), e=(d), e7=(d7), bm=(am))
Em g c g Well, they blew up the chicken man in philly last night Em g c g And they blew up his house, too Em g c g Down on the boardwalk they're ready for a fight Em g c g Gonna see what them racket boys can do
Em g c g Now there's trouble busin' in from outta state Em g c g And the d.a. can't get no relief Em g c g Gonna be a rumble on the promenade Em g d And the gamblin' commissioner's hangin' on by the skin of his teeth
Em g c g Everything dies, baby that's a fact Em g c g But maybe everything that dies some day comes back Em g c g Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty Em g c g And meet me tonight in atlantic city
Well, I got a job and I put my money away But I got the kind of debts that no honest man can pay So I drew out what I had from the central trust And I bought us two tickets on that coast city bus
Everything dies, baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies some day comes back Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty And meet me tonight in atlantic city
Am c Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold D em But with you forever I'll stay Am c We'll be goin' out where the sands turn to gold D d7 But put your stockings on 'cause it might get cold
Oh, everything dies, baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies some day comes back Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty And meet me tonight in atlantic city
Now I've been a-lookin' for a job, but it's hard to find There's winners and there's losers And I am south of the line Well, I'm tired of gettin' caught out on the losin' end But I talked to a man last night Gonna do a little favor for him
Well, everything dies, baby that's a fact But maybe everything that dies some day comes back Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty And meet me tonight in atlantic city
Oh, meet me tonight in atlantic city Oh, meet me tonight in atlantic city
