Song: Do It Again 
By:   Steely Dan

[Intro:]  {8 bars of percussions}

Gm {same chords as verse+chorus, finish on one punch Dm}

[verse: 1]
          Gm
In the morning you go gunning for the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in but they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singing as they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn't hanging and they put you on the street
 
[chorus:]
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turning round and round
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm {four bars of Gm}
You go back, Jack, do it again

[verse: 2]
          Gm
Well you know she's no high climber, then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer, and you're sure you're near the end
Then you love a little wild one, and she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know she's smiling, you'll be on your knees tomorrow

[chorus:]
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turning round and round
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm {four bars of Gm}
You go back, Jack, do it again

[solo: guitar]   {same chords as verse+chorus}
[solo: keyboard] {same chords as verse+chorus, finish on one punch Dm}

[verse: 3]
         Gm
Now you swear and kick and beg us that you're not a gambling man
Then you find you're back in Vegas with a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money so you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey you must put them on the table, yeah

[chorus:]
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheel turning round and round
        Cm    Dm   Ebmaj7  Dm   Gm {four bars of Gm}
You go back, Jack, do it again

[coda:]  Gm {suggest do same as intro and finish on Gm}
