I turn your hole card upside down
                          D7       G7
I caught you cheatin and runnin around

There's a smile upon your face
       C               A7
While another takes my place

Babe there's a green light you're free to go
                     D7            G7
You take a high road I'll take the low

Now here's your coat and shoes
             C        A7
and don't forget your blues
          DM        G7              C

I know you fooled me for all these years

I'll hold my head up high
       C              A7

There'll come a day you know how it feels

To have your aces trumped
       C           A7
and be taken for a chump
              DM          G7              C

To have your aces trumped
       C           A7
and be taken for a chump
              DM          G7              C
Now there's a green light    so spin your wheels
