[Em]   | [Em↓]
Well, they [Em] blew up the [G] chicken man in [C] Philly last [G] night
Now, they [Em] blew up [G] his house, [C] too [G]
Down on the [Em] boardwalk they're [G] gettin' ready [C] for a [G] fight
Gonna [Em] see what them [G] racket boys can [C] do [G]

Now, there's [Em] trouble [G] bustin' in from [C] outta [G] state
And the [Em] D.A. can't [G] get no re- [C] lief [G]
Gonna be a [Em] rumble [G] out on the [C] promen- [G] ade
And the [Em] gamblin' com- [G] mission's hangin' on by the [D] skin of its teeth

Chorus
Well now, [Em] everything [G] dies, baby, [C] that's a [G] fact
But maybe [Em] everything that [G] dies, some- [D] day comes [Em] back
Put your [Em] makeup [G] on, fix your [C] hair up [G] pretty
And [Em] meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G] City

| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]
| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]

Well, I [Em] got a [G] job and tried to put [C] my money a- [G] way
But I got [Em] debts that [G] no honest [C] man can [G] pay
So I [Em] drew what I [G] had from the [C] Central [G] Trust
And I [Em] bought us two [G] tickets on that [D] Coast City bus

Chorus
Now baby, [Em] everything [G] dies, honey, [C] that's a [G] fact
But maybe [Em] everything that [G] dies, some- [D] day comes [Em] back
Put your [Em] makeup [G] on, fix your [C] hair up [G] pretty
And [Em] meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G] City

| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]
| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]

| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]

BRIDGE:
Now our [C] luck may have died and our [Em] love may be cold
But [C] with you for- [D] ever I'll [Em] stay
We're [C] goin' out where the sand's [Em] turnin' to gold
[C] Put on your [G] stockin's baby, 'cause [C] the night's getting [G] cold

And maybe [Em] everything [G] dies, baby, [C] that's a [G] fact
But maybe [Em] everything that [G] dies, some- [D] day comes [Em] back [Em↓]

| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]
| [Em]  [G]   | [C]   [G]

Now, I been [Em] lookin' for a [G] job, but it's [C] hard to find [G]
Down here it's just [Em] winners and [G] losers
And don't get [C] caught on the wrong [G] side of that line
Well, I'm [Em] tired of comin' [G] out on this [C] losin' end [G]
So, honey, last [Em] night I met this [G] guy
And I'm gonna do a little [D] favor for him

Chorus
Well, I guess [Em] everything [G] dies, baby, [C] that's a [G] fact
But maybe [Em] everything that [G] dies, some- [D] day comes [Em] back
Fix your [Em] hair up [G] nice, make your- [C] self look [G] pretty
And [Em] meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G] City

[Em] Meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G] City
[Em] Meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G] City
[Em] Meet me to- [G] night in At- [C] lantic [G↓] City
