Oh, there's

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Sixth] black jack and poker and the roulette wheel

A	[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Sixth] fortune won and lost on every deal

I'm gonna

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Sixth] give it everything I've got

[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Sixth] Lady Luck please let the dice stay hot
