[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Eddie had a few days [G]comin'
So he [C]took a Las Vegas jaunt
[Dsus4]Out to the land of sup
[D]ply and demand
Where you can [G]get anything you [Dsus4]want[D]
[G]He wasn't lookin' for true love
No, he [C]didn't believe in that stuff
[Dsus4]Eddie LeGrande was a
[D]hard workin' man
Who [Dsus4]just needed a litt[D]le good luck[G]

[Verse 2]
His [C]shoes were a little worn
His [G]hair was [Em]a little thin
Just [Am]an other ol[G]d sailor
[C]Waitin' on [D]his ship [G]to come in

[Verse 3]
[G]
Lily was a two time loser
Who said [C]that love was just
a roll of the dice
She [Dsus4]acted real tough,
said once ain't [D]enough
For [G]me I learned my lesson [Dsus4]twice[D]
[G]But deep in her heart lived
a young girl
[C]Dreamin' a young girl's dream
And [Dsus4]that young girl was
who Eddie ran in[D]to
[Dsus4]Over by the slot ma c[D]hin[G]es

[Verse 4]
Her [C]face was a little pale
Her [G]dress was [Em]a little thin
Oh but [Am]lookin' at [G]her was like
[C]Watchin' his[D] ship com[G]e in

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am][G][C][D][G]

[Verse 5]
Well, he bought her a cup [G]of coffee
With the [C]quarters he meant to play
They [Dsus4]went for a bite and
[D]they talked all night
'Til they [G]said what they
needed [Dsus4]to say[D]
[G]Then they found 'em
an all night chapel
With a [C]heart shaped
honeymoon suite
[Dsus4]And some where tonight in the [D]neon light
Two hearts can't [G]be beat

[Verse 6]
And he's [C]singin' a little song
She's [G]grinnin' [Em]a little grin
And they're [Am]holdin' [G]each other
[C]Watchin' their [D]ship [G]come in

[Verse 7]
Her [C]face was a little pale
His [G]hair was [Em]a little thin
But they're [Am]two [G]young lovers
[C]Watchin' [D]their ship [G]come in
Just [Am]holdin' [G]each other
[C]Watchin' [D]their ship [G]come in
