One bright February, we were all showing some skin
F#m
The gods they were laughing
A G D
They were playin’ their cards, they were placing their bets all in
F#m A G A
They said, “Play now, play now, play now, you pay later for price of this sin.”

I grew weary of the threshold
A G D
Yeah, I know, I know, I know I like to see

Take matters like that in your own hands, you might drown on your own company
D F#m
Oh, but the gods they were laughing
A G D
Can you believe, they were calling me a fool?
F#m A G A
They said, “Play now, play now, play now, you pay later for price of this too.”
