Well they Gblew up the chicken man
in CPhilly last night
Now they Dblew up his house Gtoo
Down Gon the boardwalk they're gettin'
Cready for a fight,
Gonna Dsee what them racket boys can Gdo
Now there's Gtrouble busin' in

and the DD.A. can't get no relGief
Gonna Gbe a rumble
out on the Cpromenade and the

on by the skin of its Gteeth
[CHORUS]
Well now Ceverything dies, Gbaby that's a fact,
but maybe Deverything that dies, Gsomeday comes back
Put your Cmakeup on, fix your Ghair up pretty
and Dmeet me tonight in Atlantic GCity
Well I Ggot a job and tried to

but DI got debts that no honest man can Gpay
So I Gdrew what I had,

and Dbought us two tickets on that GCity Coast bus

G C D G

[Verse]

Well they blew up the chicken man

in Philly last night

D G

Now they blew up his house too

Down on the boardwalk they're gettin'

ready for a fight,

D G

Gonna see what them racket boys can do

Now there's trouble busin' in

from outta state,

D G

and the D.A. can't get no relief

Gonna be a rumble

out on the promenade and the

gamblin' commission's hangin'

on by the skin of its teeth

[CHORUS]

C G

Well now everything dies, baby that's a fact,

D G

but maybe everything that dies, someday comes back

C G

Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty

D G

and meet me tonight in Atlantic City

Well I got a job and tried to

put my money away,

D G

but I got debts that no honest man can pay

So I drew what I had,

from the Central Trust,

D G

and bought us two tickets on that City Coast bus

[CHORUS]

C G

Well now everything dies, baby that's a fact,

D G

but maybe everything that dies, someday comes back

C G

Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty

D G

and meet me tonight in Atlantic City

Em Am

Now our luck may have died,

Em Am

and our love may be cold,

C D Em

but with you forever, I'll stay

Em Am

Now I been lookin' for a job,

Em Am

but it's hard to find

C D Em

Down here it's just winners and losers

Em Am

Honey, last night,

Em Am

I met this guy,

C D Em

and I'm gonna do a favor for him.

C D Em

I guess Everything dies, baby that's a fact,

C D

but maybe everything that dies

someday, comes back

Am Em Am

Put your hair up nice and sit up pretty,

C D Em

and meet me tonight in Atlantic City

C D Em
