Well, I had the Dmcontract with me I was Gmopening for a star I'd Cseen him on the concert stage I'd Dmwatched him from afar I Fhadn't heard much lately Of Canything he'd done But Dmhe sang songs of rights and wrongs Of A7those who'd lost or won

So it was Dmin a run down nightclub In a Gmbroken part of town I was Con the long way up He was Dmon the long way down I Fsaw him in a corner Playing Cpinball, killing time I Dmasked him how he was And with a A7smile he answered "Fine" With a smile he answered "Fine" Then he said
-------------------------- CHORUS *******
"FSonny, it's the same old pinball I Dmplayed ten years ago CNow it's just like me, friend The Faction's getting Cslow F
I've been to the top friend
DmNow I'm way down low Still Cplaying the same old pinball clubs I played ten years aFgo" Dm A7 Dm A7

Well, Dmnever meet your heroes I've Gmread that line somewhere They're Cjust like you and me With all our Dmhope and our despair I Fsaid “It's never that bad There's Calways one more day There's Dmalways one more song to sing And A7one more tune to play"

He said "I Dmmade a lot of money And I Gmdrank a lot of wine I Cpaid for all my pleasures And I had a Dmreal good time I Fnever stayed in one place CLonger than a day I Dmgave them pearls and told the girls I A7really couldn't stay"
-------------------------- VERSE 6 ********
"But where, Dmwhere'd it go to sonny? It Gmcame and went so fast It's Cfar too easy nowadays To Dmlive back in the past But FI'm still good for doing CWhat I've always done There Dmhasn't been a house yet I A7haven't fought and won I haven't fought and won." Then he said

"So Dmnow they're out there waiting And they Gmdon't know who you are They Cdon't care for your future They'll Dmjust prop up the bar And Fyou, you'll sing your heart out And Cmaybe some will hear And Dmmaybe you'll come back And play this A7place again next year"

"So, go on and do your Dmset now, sonny BeGmfore they get too drunk And Cplease, don't count them, sonny These Dmglasses that I've sunk I'll Fdo my show, remember I've Cnever lost them yet But Dmsonny, sometimes lately A7It's been an even bet It's been an even bet." Then he said

He's long Dmgone and forgotten His Gmname you never knew But Cwhat reminded me Was when I Dmturned and looked at you FStanding there so happy With your Cnew guitar and dreams DmOne question for you, sonny Can you A7play these machines Can you play these machines
-------------------------- CHORUS *******
'FCause sonny it's the same old pinball He Dmplayed ten years ago And Cnow it's just like me friend The Faction's getting Cslow F
I've been to the top friend
And Dmnow I'm way down low Still Cplaying the same old pinball clubs I played ten years aFgo" Yes, I'm Cplaying the same old pinball clubs I played ten years aFgo"
