He deals the cards, in a meditation,
us4
and those who play, never suspect,
he doesnt play, for the mo - ney he wins,
he doesnt play for respect.
us4
He deals the cards looking for answers,
suus4
the sacred geometry of chance,
a hidden law, of a pro - bable outcome,
the numbers lead a dance.
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
suus4
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
I know that diamonds, are mo - ney for this art,
but thats not the shape of my heart.
us4
And he may play the jack of diamonds,
us4
he may lay the queen of spades,
he may conceal, a king in his hand,
while the memory of it fades.
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
us4
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
I know that diamonds, are mo - ney for this art,
but thats not the shape of my heart,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 (Middle 8 start)
thats not the shape of my (heart
MIDDLE 8 ( HARMONICA SOLO )

us4
And if I told you that I loved you,
us4
you maybe think theres something wrong,
I'm not a man, of two many faces,
the mask I wear has won.
us4
And all those that speak know nothing,
us4
and they'll find out to their cost,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B&
and those that curse their luck, in too many places,
are those that fear are lost.
CHORUS 2 REPEAT CHORDS AS NORMAL BUT HOLD ON Esus2sus4 LEAD INTO:
INTRO / OUTRO - SIMPLY FOLLOW ALL TABBED CHORDS AT START
END on Em
