Rackem Up

C7

[Verse]
C7
I used to hang out, down at jack's 
pool hall
C7
You go down there, don't do nothin' 
at all
C7
You wanted to play some cards there 
was a game in the back
C7
You wanted to shoot of somethin', 
you went and talked to jack
C7
If you had a little money you was a 
grade a fool
C7
There was a guy down there who used 
to shoot a little pool

[Refrain]
        C7           C7           
Rack em up   Rack em up   Rack em 
F9           C7
up   Rack em up
           D7                  G9 
Till the day he was dead, that all
                          C7  A7  
 they ever said was rack'em up
D  G7

[Verse]
C7
He didn't own a set TV, he didn't 
own a car
C7
He ate whatever Jack is making back 
behind the bar
C7
They said he had a wife, but she 
left him tears
C7
He hadn't been home once in 
twenty-five years
C7
Rack'em up   Rack'em up

[Verse]
C7
They come from all over thinkin' 
they were pretty hot
C7
They put the money on the table, 
wanna play the best we got
F9
Nine in the corner, five in the side
C7
Take a hundred dollar bill and just,
 let it ride
              F9
I'd tell him, "listen hear sonny, 
there ain't no disaster
        G9
There ain't no shame in bein' beaten
 by a master"
