VERSE 1/2
B7B7
 He deals the cards,  in a meditation,
B7B7
 and those who play,  never suspect,
B7B7
  he doesnt play,   for the mo - ney he wins,
E minorEm
  he doesnt play  for  respect.
B7B7
 He deals the cards looking for answers,
B7B7
  the sacred geometry of chance,
B7B7
  a hidden law,    of a pro - bable outcome,
E minorEm
  the numbers lead  a  dance.

CHORUS 1
B7B7
  I know that the spades,  are the swords of a soldier,
B7B7
  I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
B7B7
  I know that diamonds,   are mo - ney for this art,
    E minorEm
  but thats not the shape of my heart.

VERSE 3
B7B7
  And he may play the jack of diamonds,
B7B7
  he may lay the queen of spades,
B7B7
  he may conceal,  a king  in his hand,
E minorEm
  while the memory of it fades.

CHORUS 2
B7B7
  I know that the spades,  are the swords of a soldier,
B7B7
  I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
B7B7
  I know that diamonds,  are mo - ney for this art,
    E minor 7Em7
  but thats not the shape  of my heart,
  Cmaj7Cmaj7     Esus2sus4        (Middle 8 start)
  thats not the shape       of my (heart

MIDDLE 8 (HARMONICA SOLO)

VERSE 4
B7B7
  And if I told you that I loved you,
B7B7
  you maybe think theres something wrong,
B7B7
  I'm not a man,  of two  many faces,
E minorEm
  the mask I wear  has  won.
B7B7
  And all those that speak know nothing,
B7B7
  and they'll find out to their cost,
B&
  and those that curse their luck, in too many places,
E minorEm
  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
