Verse 1
[Em]He deals the cards, [Bm7]as a meditation, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]and those he plays, [Bm7]never suspect, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]he doesn't play, for the [Gsus2] [G5]money he [B7]wins,
[Cmaj7/G]he doesn't play for [Asus2/F#]respect. [Em]
Verse 2
[Em]He deals the cards to find the [Bm7]answer, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]the sacred geometry [Bm7]of chance, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]the hidden law, of a [Gsus2] [G5]probable [B7]outcome,
[Cmaj7/G]the numbers lead [Asus2/F#]a dance. [Em]
Chorus
[Em]I know that the spades, [Bm7]are the swords of a soldier, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]I know that the clubs [Bm7]are weapons of war, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]I know that diamonds, [Gsus2] [G5]mean money for this [B7]art,
[Cmaj7/G]but that's not the [Asus2/F#]shape of my [Em]heart.
Verse 3
[Em]And he may play the [Bm7]jack of diamonds, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]he may lay the [Bm7]queen of spades, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]he may conceal, [Gsus2] [G5]a king in his [B7]hand,
[Cmaj7/G]while a memory [Asus2/F#]of it fades. [Em]

[Cmaj7]I know that diamonds, [Gsus2] [G5]mean money for this [B7]art,
[Cmaj7/G]but that's not the [Asus2/F#]shape of my [Em]heart, [Em7]
[Cmaj7/G]that's not the shape [Asus2/F#]of my [Bm7]heart.

Verse 4
[Em]And if I told her that I [Bm7]loved you, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]you'd maybe think there's [Bm7]something wrong, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]I'm not a man, [Gsus2] [G5]of too many [B7]faces,
[Cmaj7/G]the mask I wear [Asus2/F#]is one. [Em]
Verse 5
[Em]But those who speak [Bm7]know nothing, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]and find out to [Bm7]their cost, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]like those who curse their luck, [Gsus2] [G5]in too many [B7]places,
[Cmaj7/G]are those who fear [Asus2/F#]are lost. [Em]
Chorus
[Em]I know that the spades, [Bm7]are the swords of a soldier, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Em#5]I know that the clubs [Bm7]are weapons of war, [Asus2/C] [Bsus4] [B7]
[Cmaj7]I know that diamonds, [Gsus2] [G5]mean money for this [B7]art,
[Cmaj7/G]but that's not the [Asus2/F#]shape of my [Em]heart, [Em7]
[Cmaj7/G]that's not the shape [Asus2/F#]of my [Bm7]heart.
