v.1
^BsEver since I was a young boy, I ^Bplayed the silver ball
^AsFrom Soho down to Brighton, I ^Amust have played them all

v.2
He stands like a statue, becomes part of the machine
Feelin' all the bumpers, always playin' clean
Plays by intuition, the digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball

Refrain I:
He's a ^Epin^F#ball ^Bwizard, there ^Ehas to ^F#be a ^Btwist
A ^Epin^F#ball ^Bwizard, got ^Gsuch a supple ^Dwrist
How do you ^Cthink ^Ghe ^Ddoes it? (I don't know!)
What makes him ^Gso ^Dgood?

v.3
Ain't got no distractions, can't hear no buzzes and bells
Don't see no lights a-flashin', plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay, never see him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball

Refrain II:
I thought I was the Bally table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him

Instr. Brk.
