Capo 2
[Verse 1/2]
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
He deals the cards, in a meditation,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
and those who play, never suspect,
[C] [G] [Bm]
he doesnt play, for the mo - ney he wins,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
he doesnt play for respect.
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
He deals the cards to find the answers,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
the sacred geometry of chance,
[C] [G] [Bm]
a hidden law, of a pro - bable outcome,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
the numbers lead a dance.
Chorus 1
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
[C] [G] [Bm]
I know that diamonds, are mo - ney for this art,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
but thats not the shape of my heart.
Verse 3
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
And he may play the jack of diamonds,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
he may lay the queen of spades,
[C] [G] [Bm]
he may conceal, a king in his hand,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
while the memory of it fades.
Chorus 2
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
[C] [G] [Bm]
I know that diamonds, are mo - ney for this art,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
but thats not the shape of my heart.
Verse 4
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
And if I told you that I loved you,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
you maybe think there's something wrong,
[C] [G] [Bm]
I'm not a man, of two many faces,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
the mask I wear is one.
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
And all those that speak know nothing,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
and they'll find out to their cost,
[C] [G] [Bm]
and those that curse their luck, in too many places,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
are those that fear are lost.
Chorus 1

I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
[Em] [Bm] [Am]
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
[C] [G] [Bm]
I know that diamonds, are mo - ney for this art,
[C] [Bm] [Em]
but thats not the shape of my heart.
