The night was clear 
and the moon was yellow
And the leaves came tumbling down

-6’-6’ -6’  -6  -6’-6’ -6’ -6
I was stand-ing on the cor-ner 
 -6’-6   6   6   6   -5   -4
when I heard my bull-dog bark
-5 -5   -6  -6  -6 -6  -6  -5
He was bark-in' at the two men 
-5   -5   5  5 4   5   5   -5
who were gam-blin' in the dark
-6’-6’  -6’ -6  -6  -6’ -6’ -6
It was Stag-ger Lee and Bil-ly, 
-6’-6 6  6   6   -5   -4
two men who gam-bled late
 -5  -5  -6   -6   -6  -5
Stag-ger Lee threw sev-en, 
-5  -5  5 5   4   5    5    -5
Bil-ly swore that he threw eight
