Verse 1
He deals the cards, as a meditation,
and those he plays, never suspect,
he doesn't play, for the mo - ney he wins,
he doesn't play for respect.
Verse 2
He deals the cards to find the answer,
the sacred geometry of chance,
the hidden law, of a pro - bable outcome,
the numbers lead a dance.
Chorus 1
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
I know that diamonds, mean mo - ney for this art,
but that's not the shape of my heart.
Verse 3
And he may play the jack of diamonds,
he may lay the queen of spades,
he may conceal, a king in his hand,
while a memory of it fades.
Chorus 2
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
I know that diamonds, mean mo - ney for this art,
but that's not the shape of my heart,
that's not the shape of my heart

Verse 4
And if I told her that I loved you,
you'd maybe think there's something wrong,
I'm not a man, of too many faces,
the mask I wear is one.
Verse 5
But those who speak know nothing,
and find out to their cost,
like those who curse their luck, in too many places,
are those who fear are lost.
CHORUS 2, REPEAT CHORDS AS NORMAL BUT HOLD ON Asus2/F# LEAD INTO:
INTRO / OUTRO - SIMPLY FOLLOW ALL TABBED CHORDS AT START
END ON Em
