The Gambler (Full with Lyrics) Harmonica Tab
Listen to the song to get a feel on the timing of the notes. Most
lines have a rest preceding the first note.
Ill add 2nd half after the chorus at a later date. Feel free to rate
it. This is my first tab. Send me a message if you have any inquires.
3 3 4 4 4 4 3
On a warm sum-mer’s even-in’,
4 4 -5 6 -5 6 5
On a train bound for no-where
4 5 6 -6 -6 6 5
I met up with the gam-bler.
4 4 4 5 -4 4 -4
We were both too tired to sleep.
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
So we took turns a-star-in’
3 3 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
Out the win-dow at the dark-ness.
4 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
When bore-dom o-ver took us,
3 -4 -4 5 -4 4
And He be-gan to speak.
3 3 4 4 4 4 3
He said, Son, I’ve made my life
4 4 -5 6 -5 6 5
Out of readin’ peo-ple’s fac-es.
4 5 6 -6 -6 6 5
And know-in’ what their cards were
4 4 4 5 -4 4 -4
By the way they held their eyes.
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
And if you don’t mind my say-in’,
3 3 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
I can see you’re out of ac-es,
4 -5 6 -6 6 5
For a taste of your whis-key,
3 -4 -4 5 -4 4
I’ll give you some ad-vice.
3 4 4 4 4 4 3
So I hand-ed him my bott-le,
4 4 -5 6 -5 6 5
And he drank down my last swal-low.
4 5 6 -6 -6 6 5
Then he bummed a cig-a-rette
4 4 5 -4 4 -4
And asked me for a light.
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
And the night got death-ly qui-et,
3 3 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
And his face lost all ex-pres-sion.
4 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
Said, If You’re gon-na play the game, boy,
4 4 4 -4 -4 5 -4 4
You got-ta learn to play it right.
Chorus:
5 -4 4 4
You’ve got to know
4 4 4 3
When to hold ’em,
-5 6 -6 6 5
Know when to fold ’em
-5 6 -6 6 5 4
Know when to walk a-way,
3 4 -3 4 -4
and know when to run.
5 -4 4 4 -4 4 3
You ne-ver count your mon-ey
4 4 -5 -5 6 -6 6 5
When you’re sit-tin’ at the ta-ble.
4 5 6 6 -6 6 6 5
There’ll be time e-nough for count-in’
-4 -4 5 -3 4
When the deal-in’s done.
