No Capo
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INTRO]
A D E A
[VERSE 1]
A
I never thought I'd need you
     D
But now I find I'm wrong
E
Come on back sweet mama
                A
Back where you belong
      A
I've gambled over town
    D
And find that I can't win
E                           A
Come on back and Pick me up again
[CHORUS]
         E
Now if I lose
       A
Let me lose
        E
I don't care
            A
How much I lose
     A
If I lose a hundred dollars
          D
While I'm trying to win a dime
    E                           A
My baby she's got money all the time
[VERSE 2]
A
Of all the other girls I know
D
None can take your place
       E
'Cause when I get into a jam
                       A
They just ain't in the race
   A
So come on back home dear
      D
Let’s take another round
E
With you here by my side babe
                       A
The deal just can't go down
[CHORUS]
         E
Now if I lose
       A
Let me lose
        E
I don't care
            A
How much I lose
     A
If I lose a hundred dollars
          D
While I'm trying to win a dime
    E                           A
My baby she's got money all the time
[Solo]
E A E A  A  D  E  A
[CHORUS]
         E
Now if I lose
       A
Let me lose
        E
I don't care
            A
How much I lose
     A
If I lose a hundred dollars
          D
While I'm trying to win a dime
    E                           A
My baby she's got money all the time
