VERSE 1:
    C                            C2         Em   G
You always won, ev'ry time you placed a bet.
       C                           C2              Em   G
You're still damn good; no one's gotten to you yet.
F           G                               C
Ev'ry time, they were sure they had you caught, 
Em                                Am
you were quicker than they thought.
 Dm                           G     F  Em  Dm
You'd just turn your back and walk.

VERSE 2:
    C                                  C2           Em   G
You always said, the cards would never do you wrong.
    C                                   C2           Em   G
The trick you said, was never play the game too long.
  F                    G                           C
A gambler's share; the only risk that you would take,
    Em                         Am
the only loss you could forsake,
    Dm                      G     F  Em  Dm
the only bluff you couldn't fake.

CHORUS:
                         C
And you're still the same.
    E                         A
I caught up with you yesterday.
                  Dm                         G   F  Em  Dm
Movin' game to game; no one standin' in your way.
                   C   E                        A
Turnin' on the charm - long enough to get you by.
                     Dm               G    F   Em  Dm
You're still the same.  You still aim high.

F                G                      C
There you stood; ev'ry body watched play.  
E                            Am
I just turned and walked away.
Dm                    G   F  Em  Dm
I had nothing left to say.

OUT-CHORUS (repeat & fade):
                         C    C2   Em   G
And you're still the same.
                         C    C2   Em   G
And you're still the same.
                   C  C2     Em   G
Movin' game to game.
                        C   C2    Em   G
Some things never change.
                         C   C2    Em    G
And you're still the same.
