Mr Mudd And Mr Gold Chords

Capo 2
 
[Verse 1]
          Am
Well, the wicked King of Clubs awoke
    C
And it was to his Queen he turned
    Dm
His lips were laughing as they spoke
E
His eyes like bullets burned
    Am
The sun's upon a gambling day
    C
His Queen smiled low and blissfully
      Dm
Let's make some wretched fool to pay
E
Plain it was she did agree
 
[Verse 2]
   Am
He sent his Deuce down into Diamond
    C
His Four to Heart and his Trey to Spade
Dm
Three Kings with their legions come
E
Preparations soon were made
     Am
They voted Club the day's commander
C
Gave him an army, face and number
    Dm
All but the outlaw Jack of Diamonds
E
And the Aces in the sky
 
[Verse 3]
         Am
Well, he gave his Sevens first instructions
C
Spirit me a game of stud
Dm
Stakes unscarred by limitation
          E
Between a man named Gold and a man named Mudd
Am
Club filled Gold with greedy vapours
C
Till his long green eyes did glow
    Dm
And Mudd was left with sighs and trembles
E
Watching his hard earned money go
 
[Verse 4]
Am
Flushes fell on Gold like water
C
Tens they paired and paired again
        Dm
But the Aces only flew through heaven
        E
And the Diamond Jack called no man friend
        Am
Now the Diamond Queen saw Mudd's ordeal
C
Began to think of her long lost son
Dm
Fell to her knees with a mother's mercy
    E
And prayed to the angels every one
 
[Verse 5]
        Am
Now the Diamond Queen she prayed and prayed
        C
And the Diamond Angel filled Mudd's hole
Dm
The wicked King of Clubs himself
E
Fell face down in front of Gold
    Am
Now three Kings come to Club's command
        C
But the angels in the sky did ride
Dm
Three Kings up on the streets of Gold
E
Three fireballs on the Muddy side
 
[Verse 6]
    Am
The Club Queen heard her husband's call
   C
But Lord, that Queen of Diamond's joy
         Dm
When the outlaw in the heavenly hall
E
Turned out to be a wandering boy
    Am
Now Mudd he checked and Gold bet all
    C
And Mudd he raised and Gold did call
        Dm
And the smile just melted off his face
     E
When Mudd turned over that Diamond Ace
 
[Verse 7]
Am
Now here's what the story's told
       C
If you feel like Mudd you'll end up Gold
       Dm
If you feel like lost you'll end up found
   E
So amigo, lay them raises down
