[Verse 1]
G G6
Don’t make me come to Vegas
G7 C
Don’t make me pull you out of his bed
F C
I am vigilant
Am G
That it will not be you on the menu
G7 G
He’s serving up for his friends
[Verse 2]
G G6
Don’t make me come to Vegas
G7 C
Don’t make me pull him out of your head
F C
Athena will attest
Am G
That it could be done and it has been done
G7 G
And I think that I am up to it
[Chorus]
D C
And the Jacaranda tree, she's telling me of the trouble you’re in
Em G
Just by the way she bends
D C
Remember dancing and wondering as you were swaying
Em G
What kind of woman you’d be
F C
“What will be, will be”
G
Over my dead body
[Interlude]
F G F G
[Post-Chorus]
C
Slip through your hand (Slip through your hand)
G F G
Again and again (Again)
[Verse 3]
G G6 G7
My old flame was a Jester and a joker
C
And a dealer of men
F C
They called him the prince
G
Prince of Black Jacks and of women
G7 G
And of anything that slipped into his hands
[Verse 4]
G G6
“And the ranches and the mustangs”
G7 C
And the way you said, "You can have all this
F C
Except for me
G
You see, Lady Luck is my mistress
G7 G
And you’ll have to play second to her wish”
[Chorus]
D C
And the Jacaranda tree is telling me it’s not over yet
G
Just by the way she bends
D Am C
“If you come breezing through,”you said “I’ll know that it’s you by the taste on my lips
Em G
Bet on the desert’s kiss”
F
I could slip through your net
G
“Over my dead body”
[Interlude]
F G F G
[Post-Chorus]
C
Slip through your hand (Slip through your hand)
G F G F G
Again and again
C
Slip through your hand (Slip through your hand)
G
Again and again (Again)
[Outro]
G C
Don’t make me come to Vegas
G C
Don’t make me come to Vegas
G C
Don’t make me come to Vegas
G
Hmm
don't make me come to vegas
don't make me pull you out of his bed
i am vigilant that it will not be
you on the menu he's serving up for his friends
don't make me come to vegas
don't make me pull him out of your head
athena will attest
that it could be done
and it has been done
and i think that i am up to it
and the jacaranda tree
is telling me of the trouble you're in
just by the way
she bends remember dancing and wondering
as you were swaying
what kind of woman you'd be
"what will be will be" over my dead body
slip through your hand again and again
slip through your hand again and again
my old flame was a jester and a joker
and as healer of men, they called him the prince
prince of black jacks and of women
and of anything that's slipped into his hands
"and the ranches and the mustangs"
and the way you said "you can have all this, except for me--
you see lady luck is my mistress
and you'll have to play second to her wish"
and the jacaranda tree
is telling me it's not over yet,
just by the way
she bends "if you come breezin' through"
you said "i'll know that it's you by the taste on my lips,
bet on the deserts kiss"
i could slip through your net
"over my dead body" slip through your hand
don't make me come to vegas
hmmm
