Backstory:

The same song I have as a rock song. Alan suggested that it could be country. So I tried.                                                                                           

Lyrics:

                                                  
V1
An old man looked into my eyes 
And said something about his grandson 
Something about stars on his shoulders
Something about every boy’s dream 

PRECH 
I looked into his eyes and thought about 

CH
Adrenaline and nicotine of games and races
The thrill of play, the thrill of fall
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control 
I’ve got the aces!

I’ve got the aces!

V2
The old man cried and paid for my drink
He said something about scars
Something about skeletons on the field
Concealed and unfound, with missing lips

PRECH 
I thanked him for my drink and thought about 

CH
How greedy grins distort excited plastic faces
The thrill of play, the thrill of fall 
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control 
I’ve got the aces!

I’ve got the aces!

BRIDGE 
The old man asked me about my life
The legless veteran talked about his legacy 
Something about Marine or marrying 
He was drunk and I walked away 

PRECH 
Because all I could think that day was 

CH
The toxic temple in the web of gambling places 
The thrill of game, the thrill of fall 
I toss the dice in a lucky roll 
I have my fate under control 
I’ve got the aces!

I’ve got the aces!

CH
The toxic temple in the web of gambling places 
The thrill of game, the thrill of fall 
I toss the dice in a lucky roll 
I have my fate under control 
I’ve got the aces!

I’ve got the aces!
