[Verse 1]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
The El Cortez is the gold in my vein
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
Since my poor wife finally killed her pain
Gaug7/B A#m6
I’ll become the man that time forgot
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
[Verse 2]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
She prayed and prayed to the weeping one
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
Who kept her mouth on the mouth of her gun
Gaug7/B A#m6
Those tears that leave you to rot
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
[Verse 3]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
To the slots I go every day
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
I know the tide will go my way
Gaug7/B A#m6
If I give up hope what have I got
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
[Chorus]
Dm G#
An angel’s wing brushed the penny slots
Am Dm
A spinning star, an ancient plot
Dm G#
To the lights what we call luck
Am
Is how they fly
Dm
Escape the plot
[Verse 4]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
I was 10 dollars down when she appeared
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
With klieg light wings my eyes they teared
Gaug7/B A#m6
Tried to rise to her but the carpet I caught
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
[Verse 5]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
If that was death then it’s not so bad
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
She held me close and she said
Gaug7/B A#m6
“On the wheel of fortune the winnings never stop”
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
[Chorus]
Dm G#
An angel’s wing brushed the penny slots
Am Dm
And tried to wake my weak heart up
[Verse 6]
Dm G#
And when I fell she read all my thoughts
Am
Did not run
Dm
She helped me up
[Outro]
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
And the El Cortez still welcomes me
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
Guess if you die on their floor the drinks are all free
D#maj7/E C#maj7b5
And I will roll high, just wait and see
Gaug7/B A#m6
Now lady luck has punched my clock
Fm9no5/G# Fmaj9no5/A
Drip by drip, drop by drop
