A minorAm Am7Am7 FF
So I was not the one you wanted

Must you be so disappointed
DmDm Dm/C GsusGsus G+G
Can you not carry on in style

And the crowd rushes in to tear down the gate

While the whole palace slept and I never rang the bell

Maybe that's poetic justice, but it's pretty hard to tell
Verse 2

A minorAm Am7Am7 FF
And when the fortune wheel is spinning
A minorAm FF
Luck is fortune's dirty joke
DmDm Dm/C GsusGsus G+G
And a players chance of winning
DmDm Dm/C GsusGsus G+G
Is diminished by his hope

Can't you laugh just to think of the gold

We had running though our hands
C majorC GsusGsus G+G
When we were on a roll

And declare what was mine I stole from someone else

Maybe that's poetic justice, but it's pretty hard to tell
Bridge
---------
E MajorE A minorAm Am7Am7 FF
It's hard to tell why the solid ground surprised us when we fell
C majorC E MajorE
It's hard to say, it's life and death
A minorAm Am7Am7 FF
Or just so many bitter words beneath your breath
(Play Chorus 1, thE/G#n...)

And declare what they must do, I'm doing to myself
