INTRO
D G D
 
VERSE 1
         D     G         D
I hit my stride in Louisiana
                           G                D
Where it's hard to tell the daytime from the night
               G             Bm
I placed my bet and I saw the faces
              G       D      A      D
Of the winners and the losers in the light
 
               D    G             D
I've dragged my nets off the Widow Maker
                      G             D
I'm up three weeks pay I got a motel key
           G            Bm
New Orleans sure found a winner
G    D         G         D          A          D
Off a run down, low rent, gulf coast loser like me
 
 
CHORUS
                     A             D
Am I the worst you've seen Bernadine
                                    A
Shed a little of your lovin' down my way
D                                 G
Keep these dice from turning cold, make my hard times shine like gold
A                         D
Shed a little mercy Bernadine

VERSE 2
             D          G                D
Well the rain falls hard on the motel window
                     G                  D
As the night gives in along the Pontchar-train
                     G               Bm
I ran with Little Joe and lost all my money
D          G    D             A          D
Whiskey and salt-water running through my veins
 
            D  G                D
Saint Bernadine please don't forsake me
                  G               D
You gonna help me, help me find my way
                G          Bm
These hard times don't over take me
    D       G      D      A         D
I'll cast my nets into the Galveston Bay
 
 
CHORUS
                     A             D
Am I the worst you've seen Bernadine
                                    A
Shed a little of your lovin' down my way
D                                 G
Keep these dice from turning cold, make my hard times shine like gold
A                         D
Shed a little mercy Bernadine

Shed a little of your lovin' down my way
D                                 G
Keep these dice from turning cold, make my hard times shine like gold

Shed a little mercy Bernadine

Shed a little mercy Bernadine
