[INTRO / BUILD] [Low bass line, floor tom groove, whispered vocal] [HOOK] [Drums drop in half-time, sharp guitar riff, hypnotic repetition] [VERSE 1] [Dry hi-hat beat, single-note guitar riff, talk-sung delivery] Fast wedding, quicker bells— I bet on her love, I bet on her. My Dame of Spades grins like a Cheshire cat. [Angular guitar line, bass syncopation] Her eyes sharp like the razor-thin deck— I told you I’d be back, forget the odds, Let’s burn what's left. [SECTION NOTE] [Add operetta-style “laughing song” moment: the singer half-sings, half-laughs, playful and theatrical.] [PRE-CHORUS] [Bass pulsing, drums slow down, vocals stretched out] Who burns it all for the taste of her kiss? Just another name on the house blacklist. no matter... I’m all in... [CHORUS] [Full band hits, fuzz bass, wide melodic vocals] A thousand chapels, all dressed in sin, A thousand nights lost where love’s hard-earned. A thousand Vegas roses bloom, they’ll cut your skin, I’ll keep playing, and she lets me win. She lets me win... She lets me win. [Sampel #?] [Short instrumental] [VERSE 2] [Funky staccato riff, fast-paced vocal phrasing, call-and-response feel] Viva Vegas....rang from my lips. Viva Vegas... The King in white fell. Don’t forget......the old ivories. Don’t forget.... feasting on the carrion. [Outro] [Big stadium-like sound, doubled vocals, slight delay on endings] A thousand chapels, all dressed in sin, A thousand nights lost where love’s hard-earned. A thousand Vegas roses bloom, they’ll cut your skin, I’ll keep playing, and she lets me win. She lets me win... She lets me win. [Outro] [Drums cut out, bass + reverb guitar only, sudden distorted riff drop] [Instrumental bridge: heavy guitar solo riff with distortion] [End]
