(  Dm   F   Am   G) throughout the song, except for the very ending instrumental
He'll take the money and the food that's in your hand
But you have to understand that he's a dreamer
Living my life within a mile you could believe
This place turns honest men to thieves
And I could see it in his eyes
He was the type to sail off in the night
(Chorus:)
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer, didn't know he was a tropical chancer
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer, didn't know he was a tropical chancer
He'll trade your loving for the things he's never seen
The places he has never been
Oh but remember he is just a good pretender
And he doesn't give his love away for free
And I could see it in his eyes
He was the type to sail off in the night
(Chorus 2x)
(  Am   G   Dm)

Dm F Am G

( ) throughout the song, except for the very ending instrumental

He'll take the money and the food that's in your hand

But you have to understand that he's a dreamer

Living my life within a mile you could believe

This place turns honest men to thieves

And I could see it in his eyes

He was the type to sail off in the night

(Chorus:)

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer, didn't know he was a tropical chancer

I met him through a dancer

Didn't know he was a tropical chancer

A tropical chancer, didn't know he was a tropical chancer

He'll trade your loving for the things he's never seen

The places he has never been

Oh but remember he is just a good pretender

And he doesn't give his love away for free

And I could see it in his eyes

He was the type to sail off in the night

(Chorus 2x)

Am G Dm
