[Verse 1]
G F# Bm G
Late night she finds love
F# Bm
On a machine with flashing lights
G F#m Bm A
As sour as the lemons that spin before her eyes
G A
She tries, she can't hesitate to play on through the night
[Chorus]
D A G A
Because she can't leave empty handed
D A G A
She ain't got no man to interlock her hands with
D A G A
It's such a sad world for not a bad girl
D A G A
She spins her coins away only wishing that she stays
Bm A G
Not to pay the price of it all
Bm A G
The price of it all
[Instrumental]
F# Bm G
[Verse 2]
F# Bm
She's been drinking it for hours overpowered lemons sours
G
On the heat of her breath, resurrects a single syllable eligible
F# Bm A
For the one who stands between the queen and her machine
G F#
Is this her means to an end or lending to her tendencies
Bm A
Sensitive dependencies
G
Exclaim the pain, the curse gets trained
A
And her pockets all remain the same, with sterling change
[Chorus]
D A G A
She can't leave empty handed
D A G A
She ain't got no man to interlock her hands with
D A G A
It's such a sad world for not a a bad girl
D A G A
She spins her coins away only wishing that she'd stay
Bm A G
Not to pay the price of it all
Bm A G F#
The price of it all
[Verse 3]
G D
There's two sides to every coin
Bm A
Where one side leaves and the other joins
G D
On one side, there's an old face turning over to a new place
Bm A G
There's always a new tale to tell
Bm A G
There's always a new tale to tell
[Verse 4]
G D
As they walk out the door, hand in hand
She said
Bm A G
"Sorry we didn't win anything, it didn't quite go to plan"
G
He gave her hand a tight squeeze and said
D Bm A G
"I don't understand how long I've lived on this land
G A D
If this ain't winning, I don't wanna be winning man."
