Verse 1



Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
He deals the cards, as a meditation,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
and those he plays, never suspect,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7

he doesn’t play, for the mo - ney he wins,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
he doesn’t play for respect.
Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
He deals the cards to find the answer,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
the sacred geometry of chance,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7

a hidden law, of a pro - bable outcome,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
the numbers lead a dance.



Chorus 1
Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7
I know that diamonds, mean mo - ney for this art,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
but thats not the shape of my heart.



Verse 3
Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
And he may play the jack of diamonds,

Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
he may lay the queen of spades,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7
he may conceal, a king in his hand,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
while the memory of it fades.



Chorus 2
Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
I know that the spades, are the swords of a soldier,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
I know that the clubs are weapons of war,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7

I know that diamonds, mean mo - ney for this art,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em Em7
but thats not the shape of my heart,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
that’s not the shape of my heart

Verse 4



Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
And if I told you that I loved you,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
you maybe think theres something wrong,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7

I’m not a man, of too many faces,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
the mask I wear is one.
Em Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
And all those who speak know nothing,
Em/C Bm7 Asus2 Bsus4 B7
and find out to their cost,
Cmaj7 Gsus2 G5 B7
and those who curse their luck, in too many places,
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
and those who fear are lost.



Chorus 2 but end on:
Cmaj7 Esus2sus4 Em
that’s not the shape - shape of my heart
