One True Place ================================================================== Track 1 - Marguerite And The Gambler CAPO: 2nd Fret [Intro] G D C G D C D G [Verse 1]

See the man in the ^Dpicture with a ^Cfalcon on his ^Gglove A famous ^Dgambler, they say he ^Cnever knew de^Dfeat ^G Lucky at ^Dcards, oh, ^Che was lucky in ^Dlove ^Em He gave his ^Cheart to the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

[Verse 2]

See the woman be^Dside him, whis^Cpering in his ^Gear She was a famous ^Dbeauty, with ^Cmen falling at her ^Dfeet ^G Her father was the ^Drichest man in the ^Ctown of Belve^Ddere ^Em Where the ^CGambler met the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite ^Em

[Verse 3]

The day when the ^Chandsome gambling ^Gman came through that ^Dtown They ^Emmet by chance at the ^Ccorner of the ^Dstre^D7et ^G The scene was ^Dset fo^Cr the trage^Ddy, it was love at ^Emfirst sight For the ^CGambler and the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

[Verse 4]

Their passion was^D a fire that ^Ccould not be con^Gtained And when they made ^Dlove, oh, ^Chow their hearts did ^Dbeat ^G And from that ^Dmoment the whole ^Cworld would be forever ^Dchanged ^Em For the ^CGambler and the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

[Verse 5]

When her father ^Dheard the news, he was ^Clike a man pos^Gsessed In a cold fit of ^Dfury, h^Catred and des^Dpair ^G No good-for-nothing ^Dgambler was gonna ^Csteal his daughter’s ^Dheart ^Em He hired three ^Cmen to put an ^Gend to ^Dthe af^Gfair ^Em

[Verse 6]

The Gambler had a ^Croom upstairs,^G in a cheap ho^Dtel The ^Emmen lay in wait in an ^Calley off the ^Dstre^D7et ^G As the lovers strolled ^Dby, three shots rang ^Cout and the Gambler ^Dfell ^Em He died in the ^Carms of the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

[Verse 7]

When they brought her ^Dhome, she just ^Ccould not be con^Gsoled Her mother ^Dsent out for a ^Cdoctor and a ^Dpriest But it ^Gwas too ^Dlate to save her ^Cbody or her ^Dsoul She’d gone to meet the ^EmGambler Who was ^Cwaiting for his ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

[Verse 8]

See the man in the ^Dpicture with a ^Cfalcon on his ^Gglove And the woman be^Dside him, the Queen of ^CHearts at her ^Dfeet Oh^Gh, they looked so ^Dhappy, they must have been^C so much in ^Dlove ^Em The famous ^CGambler and the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite ^Em

[Verse 9]

They still talk a^Cbout them in the ^Gtown of Belve^Ddere The old ^Empeople can remember hearing ^Cgunfire on the ^Dstre^D7et ^G And now when the ^Dmoon is full, two lov^Cers sometimes ap^Dpear They say it’s the^Em ghost of The ^CGambler and the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite ^D ^G ^D They say it’s the^Em ghost of The ^CGambler and the ^Glovely ^DMargue^Grite

It had ^Fbeen a long day in the countryside ^Dm7Playing with the cousins on my mother’s side The ^Csound of the radio closed our eyes ^GDrifting across the sea, then I fell a^Am7sleep

[Verse 3]

Well, ^CI don’t know what woke me up Maybe a country song or a big truck passing^Am7 by ^CI could hear Mama and Papa talk Papa said something and Mama began^Am7 to cry

[Verse 4]

^FNo more words then, just soft sobs ^Dm7And my head began to throb ^CI just lay there playing dog ^GBreathing slow and deep, they thought I was a^Am7sleep ^F They ^Gthought I was^Am7 asleep

[Instrumental] C Am7 C Am7 F Dm7 C G Am7 [Verse 5]

[Verse 6]

^FHeadlights shining from the other way Showed ^Dm7tears on the cheeks of Daddy’s face I ^Cprayed for Jesus to send his grace And ^Gall our souls to keep, back then I be^Am7lieved it ^F They ^Gthought I was a^Am7sleep ^F The ^Gnight was dark^Am7 and deep ^F I ^Gwish I was a^Am7sleep ^F How I ^Gwish I was a^Am7sleep
