Allman Brothers - Gamblers Roll guitar tab

From alt.guitar.tab Tue May 30 17:24:30 1995

Newsgroups: alt.guitar.tab

I hope this tab comes close to the way the Allamn Bro's are doin' that song.

Just two words about the solo and the lyrics: VERY POOR!!!

I've had not so much time to tab the song. So take the solo tab as an "as is"

kind of thing (just a view ideas how to build up a solo to the underlying

chords... and any HELP concerning the lyrics are very welcome!!!

THIRD VERSE:

The dealer knows it's just about his last game

not even she knows all the sorrow and the pain

as the fourtyfive deals a fiddle blow

on a gamblers roll on a gamblers roll

REFRAIN:

You know the gambler he rides

rides on a fools train

train..... silver.......alone

all is what will change

time takes it's toll

on a gamblers roll

on a gamblers roll

on a gamblers roll

on a gamblers roll
