Subject:       CRD: Vegas by Sleeper

I got bored wating for someone else to trascribe some Sleeper, so I did
this myself. This is how Louise played it on C4`s The White Room; if you
have any Sleeper transcribed, or you just want to say hello e-mail me at:

Vegas by Sleeper (from the album Smart)

Intro: B C# E x3

B
He lives on his own

The TV`s on loan
             Eb  E
He watches old movies

B
He lives in a flat

The lino`s all cracked
             Eb    E
But he`s got plans bingo

B               Eb              B
He sings like Sinatra with more feel
B              Eb
Plays with his pocket roulette wheel all day
    E
And no-one stopped him

B      C#
He got away
       E
Waited all this time with
                     B
All this scratching around
       C#             E
In one place, made it just in time
                    B
All this talk about luck
             C#
He`s just so loaded
B            C#     E
He`s just so loaded down

B
He gets on a plane

He changes his name
               Eb  E
He flys off to Las Vegas

B
He saved up for years

Cashed in his fears
              Eb    E
He always had plans bingo

B               Eb                  B
He packs up his white lounge lizard suit
B         Eb
Plenty of hairspray and a big cigar
    E
And no-one stopped him

B      C#
He got away
         E
Took him 40 years
                     B
To plan his route of escape
          C#             E

    B             C#
The first time he flew
            E
Watched the Vegas skyline
                 B
Gently melt into view
         C#
All this booze, swore he just saw Elvis
                 B
Playing poker at Dunes

He`s just so loaded
B            C#

B            C#     E
He`s just so loaded now
