G#C#
Through ugly pints and Sunday breath
F#G#C#
Sit men whose stare is cold as breath
G#C#
Through wide lapels and glued up eyes
F#G#C#
Through made up kids and made up wives
C#7
Sitting in the heart of them
F#
Is a man whoʼs not like other men
C#7
Donʼt you know just who I am
F#G#7
A nod, a wink, I am the domino man.
G#C#
And if you pull a double one
F#G#C#
Iʼll pack may bags and Iʼll be gone
G#C#
If you pull a three and four
F#G#C#
Iʼm flying off to Singapore
F#G#C#
Where women dance and tigers roar
F#G#C#
Iʼm lying on a distant shore
G#C#
Iʼm living life as fast as I can
F#G#F#G#C#
A nod, a wink, another drink, I am the domino man.
G#C#
Through a twenty deep screen of humorists
F#G#C#
Through slavering jaws and angry fists
G#C#
Through tales of mishap and the clickety-clack
F#G#C#
Is a fully paid memeber of the brother of the tap
C#7
Through heavy smoke and idle bets
F#
Through heaving lungs and heavy debts
C#7
Sits a man who knows he can
F#G#7
A nod, a wink, I am the domino man.
G#C#
And if you pull a two and six
F#G#C#
Iʼll pack my bags and take the risk
G#C#
And if you pull a four and five
F#G#C#
Theyʼll never take this man alive
F#G#C#
Iʼll go far east and Iʼll survive
F#G#C#
The market streets Iʼll duck and dive
G#C#
Iʼm living life as fast as I can
F#G#F#G#C#
A nod, a wink, another drink, I am the domino man.
G#C#F#G#C#
And when heʼs off to sail the seven seas
G#C#F#G#C#
He just stays indoors or hides up trees
G#C#F#G#C#
Heʼs been to places that youʼve never seen
G#G#7
But his mind is blank and his passportʼs clean
G#C#
And if you pull a two and six
F#G#C#
Iʼll pack my bags and take the risk
G#C#
And if you pull a four and five
F#G#C#
Theyʼll never take this man alive
F#G#C#
Iʼll go far east and Iʼll survive
F#G#C#
The market streets Iʼll duck and dive
G#C#
Iʼm living life as fast as I can
F#G#F#G#C#
A nod, a wink, another drink, I am the domino man.
