[D] [F#m] He doesn't play for respect
[C#m] He deals the cards to [Bm] find the answer
[D] [C#m] The sacred geometry [Bm] of chance
[D] The hidden law [A] of a probable [C#] outcome
[D] The [F#] numbers lead to [F#m] death
I know [E] that the spades [Bm] are the swords of [C#] a soldier
[D] I know [C#m] that the clubs are [Bm] weapons of war
I know that diamonds [E] mean money for [C#] this art
[D] But that's not [G#] the shape of [F#m] my heart
[C#m] He may play the [Bm] jack of diamonds
[F#m] [C#m] He may lay the [Bm] queen of spades

[F#m] [C#m] If I told you that I [Bm] loved you
[D] [C#m] You'd maybe think there's something [Bm] wrong
I'm [D] not a man
[A] With too many [C#] faces
[D] [F#m] One mask, not worth one
[E] For those who speak [Bm] no nothing
[C#] [D] [C#m] Who find out to [Bm] their cost
[D] Like those who curse their luck
[E] With too many [C#] places
[D] [G#] For those who fear a [F#m] lot
I know [E] that the spades [Bm] are the swords of [F#] a soldier
[D] I know [C#m] that the clubs are [Bm] weapons of war
