G               C
Through ugly pints and Sunday breath
     F         G       C/E
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

  C7
Sitting in the heart of them
      F
Is a man who’s not like other men
 C7
Don’t you know just who I am
   F                           G7
A nod, a wink, I am the domino man.

            G       C
And if you pull a double one
      F        G        C
I’ll pack may bags and I’ll be gone
G               C
If you pull a three and four
      F     G         C
I’m flying off to Singapore
        F     G         C
Where women dance and tigers roar
      F   G       C
I’m lying on a distant shore
      G             C
I’m 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/E
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

         C7
Through heavy smoke and idle bets
           F
Through heaving lungs and heavy debts
 C7
Sits a man who knows he can
   F                           G7
A nod, a wink, I am the domino man.

            G      C
And if you pull a two and six
      F       G        C
I’ll pack my bags and take the risk
    G              C
And if you pull a four and five
          F    G         C
They’ll never take this man alive
     F       G        C
I’ll go far east and I’ll survive
      F       G          C
The market streets I’ll duck and dive
      G             C
I’m 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 he’s off to sail the seven seas
     G           C                F G C
He just stays indoors or hides up trees
      G              C                F G C
He’s been to places that you’ve never seen
         G                                G7
But his mind is blank and his passport’s clean

            G      C
And if you pull a two and six
      F       G        C
I’ll pack my bags and take the risk
    G              C
And if you pull a four and five
          F    G         C
They’ll never take this man alive
     F       G        C
I’ll go far east and I’ll survive
      F       G          C
The market streets I’ll duck and dive
      G             C
I’m living life as fast as I can
   F      G      F       G               C
A nod, a wink, another drink, I am the domino man.
