F* - 133200

Am7/E (x02010@1)/G                     
Sinners and prayers on a jitney 
Gamblers try to smooth their raw deal 
                                        F*
Kissed their kids for the weekend 
        EAnd (022100@1)here they come to spin the wheel

Moustache-d, lipstick-ed Frannie 
She'll be sucking up the free drinks at Trump 
Going through twenties like water 
But she don't feel a thing when she's drunk

[Theу're on a]

Shattered that American daydream 
Afternoon moanin' in bed 
Swallowed the hook, line and sinker 
Working man needs the bread

Livin' on credit and debt 
Oh thank heaven - for chapter eleven 
Or should ya make just one more bet?
