You've got your ticket and your hotel keys

         Gm7       Am7           Dm7

And your overnight bag at your feet

YOu're looking down on the tropical trees

Conquistador in search of gold

For all the jack-daw reasons

Nothing ventured, nothing gained they said

         Gm7       Am7           Dm7

So you played for the winner takes all

Dm7             C               Bb

And tossed the dice high up and craned your head

      Gm7       Am7           Dm7

To see how the numbers would fall

You stole the game so easily

Another day, another boarding card,

         Gm7       Am7           Dm7

As you wait for your seat on the 'plane

Dm7             C               Bb

The movie runs but you're still working hard

         Gm7       Am7           Dm7

And you don't touch your food or champagne

F       C       F         C

I know that when your well runs dry

Dm7          Bb       Gm7

Yuu'll want to know the reason

Dm7             C               Bb

The empty night will bring you no reply

As it follows wherever you go.
