verse 1
C Am C Am
I hear the clicking of the dominoes, you shaking up a game
F C Dm F
And if we lose a hand I bet I'll know just who's to blame
C Am C Am
But if we hit 21, if we make that call
F C Dm F C
I bet I'll sit here in my chair just feeling ten feet tall
verse 2
C Am C Am
And we're caught up in the riff-raff, circling 'round the sun
F C Dm F
It takes a whole lot of blood and tears just to really love someone
C Am C Am
But when it comes back around, that's heaven on earth
F C Dm F C
You never know till the end my friend what your love is really worth
F C
Are you cracking jokes with the common folks? Are you serving to the well to do?
F C
I've traveled round and I ain't found nobody quite like you
Dm Am
And is all this living meant to be or a happy accident?
C G F C
Well in my heart you pay no rent
C G F C
Well in my heart you pay no rent
C F C F
verse 3
C Am C Am
I hear the crackle of a campfire, you're howling at the moon
F C Dm F
We all know that you gotta go, but does it have to be so soon?
C Am C Am
Bet somebody's yelling last call, I hope you get some rest
F C Dm F C
I hope you found everything that you wanted in the place you love the best
F C
Are you cracking jokes with the common folks? Are you serving to the well to do?

I've traveled round and I ain't found nobody quite like you

And is all this living meant to be or a happy accident?

Well in my heart you pay no rent

Well in my heart you pay no rent

verse 4
C Am C Am
Now we're shaking up the dominoes beneath the neon light
F C Dm F
Knowing anybody else out there couldn't put up a better fight
C Am C Am
But the fighting time's over and it's all gone
F C Dm F C
You pick up the pieces and we try to carry on
Ending Chorus

I've traveled round and I ain't found nobody quite like you
Dm Am
And is all this living meant to be or a happy accident?
C G F C
Well in my heart you pay no rent

Don't cost you nothing, not a single cent
C G F G C
Time together well is time well spent
C G F C
Well in my heart you pay no rent
C G F C
Well in my heart you pay no rent
