FUN. LYRICS "The Gambler" NOTE: I figured this out with a piano, not a guitar. It should not make any difference, but I do not know if there is an easier way to play it with a capo. Those are the chords in standard tuning, if you want to play with a capo, you will have to transpose it by yourself. The notes connected with a dash are triplets, the others are played within normal beats. The notes in the bass line are optional, but they do create a scale downwards from Bb to F, which is a nice effect That should be all you need to know about the song, now play!
