So drop another nickel in the machine

You'd never know it but buddy, I'm a kind of poet, and I got a lot of things to say 
Am7           C9                C      C/B           Am7  E7        Em7        A7 
And when I'm gloomy, you gotta  listen to me  till it's all talked away

Well that's how it goes, and Joe, I know you're gettin' pretty anx -ious to close 
        D                  Dm6         G            Dm6  Am7 G        Dm6  G  G7M G7 
So, thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bendin' your ear 
      C            C9    Am7     G/B     Am7     G     Am7  Edim   E7 
This torch that I found must be drowned or it soon might explode 
            A7  Em7     A7       C  Em7 Edim Am7  E7   F7 E7 
So, make it one for my baby and one more for the road 
     A7   Edim  Am7   G#7   G Am7 A7 D9 Am7 G 
That long,     long        road
