Bruce - Atlantic City guitar tab

Bruce Springsteen: "Atlantic City" (from the album "Nebraska")

-----------------------------------------------------------------

CAPO ON 3rd FRET!

Well, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night

Em G C G

Now, they blew up his house, too

Em G C G

Down on the boardwalk they're gettin' ready for a fight

Em G C G

Gonna see what them racket boys can do

Em G C G

Now, there's trouble bustin' in from outta state

Em G C G

And the D.A. can't get no relief

Em G C G

Gonna be a rumble out on the promenade

Em G C G

And the gamblin' commission's hangin' on by the skin of his teeth

Em G C D

Well now, ev'rything dies, baby, that's a fact

Em G C G

But maybe ev'rything that dies someday comes back

Em G D Em

Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty

G C G

And meet me tonight in Atlantic City

Em G C G

Em G C G

Well, I got a job and tried to put my money away

But I got debts that no honest man can pay

So I drew what I had from the Central Trust

And I bought us two tickets on that Coast City bus

Now, baby, ev'rything dies, honey, that's a fact...

Now our luck may have died and our love may be cold

D C Em

But with you forever I'll stay

C D Em

We're goin' out where the sand's turnin' to gold

C Em

Put on your stockin's baby, `cause the night's gettin' cold

C G C G

And maybe ev'rything dies, baby, that's a fact

C G C G

But maybe ev'rything that dies someday comes back

C G D C

Em G C G

Now, I been lookin' for a job, but it's hard to find

Down here it's just winners and losers and don't

get caught on the wrong side of that line

Well, I'm tired of comin' out on the losin' end

So, honey, last night I met this guy and I'm gonna

do a little favor for him

Well, I guess everything dies, baby, that's a fact...
