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
