Jack Of Diamonds

A                  D
I've played cards in England
       A
I've gambled in Spain
A                 D
Goin back to Carolina
       A
Gonna play my last game
A                         D
Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds
      A
I've known you from old
A                      D
You've robbed my poor pockets
    E          A
Of silver and gold


[Verse 2]

A                  D
Gonna eat when I'm hungry
       A
Gonna drink when I'm dry
A                 D
Get to feelin much better
       A
Gonna sprout wings and fly
A                   D
Gonna take down my fiddle
Continúa después del anuncio
      A
Gonna rosin up the bow
       A          D
Gonna make myself welcome
    E      A
wherever I go


[Chorus]

A                  D
Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds
     A
I've known you from old
A                 D
You've robbed my poor pockets
    E          A
Of silver and gold


[Verse 3]

A                  D
Gonna drink, gonna gamble
        A
All my money is my own
A                 D
Them that don't like me
       A
Can leave me alone
A                 D
Gonna beat on the counter

Gonna make the glass ring
A                 D
More brandy, more brandy
    E          A
More brandy to bring


[Verse 4]

A                  D
If the river was whiskey
    A
And I was a duck
A                 D
I'd dive to the bottom
       A
And never come up
A                   D
But the river ain't whiskey

And I ain't no duck
A                         D
I'll play these drunkard's hiccups
    E          A
And trust to my luck
