Intro: A D A D

D G
A light shone in the night somewhere ahead
E7 A
Blue turned into green, then it was red.
D G
And, stirring the night, loud music played
E7 A G A
The light I saw in the night was a penny arcade.

Chorus:
D
"Step up and play", each maching seemed to say
A
as I walked round and round the penny arcade.
A7
"Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle
D
and youʼll make all the coloured lights cascade".
G D
And music played in the penny arcade.
G A
Yes, it played and it played, played all the time
D G D
"Roll up and spend your last dime!"

At first I thought it a dream that I was in.
Lost , lost in a sea of glass and tin.
But no, so dipping my hand in the back of my jeans,
I grabbed a handful of coins to feed the machines.

Chorus:
D G
Roll up and spend your last, x2
D G D
roll up and spend your last dime!"
