Dm Am Bb Dm
There are unsmiling faces and bright plastic chains
Dm Am/D Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E
And a wheel in perpetual motion
Dm Am Bb Dm
And they follow the races and pay out the gains
Am/D Dm Am/D Dm
With no show of an outward emotion
A7sus4 A7 Dm
And they think it will make their lives easier
A7sus4 A7 Gm7
For God knows, up till now it's been hard
Dm Am Cm Gm
But the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am/D Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E
On the turn of a friendly card
Dm Am Cm Gm
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am/D Dm C Bbmaj7
On the turn of a friendly ca-ard
Dm Am Bb Dm
There's a sign in the desert that lies to the west
Am/D Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E
Where you can't tell the night from the sunrise
Dm Am Bb Dm
And not all the king's horses and all the king's men
Dm Am/D Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E
Have prevented the fall of the unwise
A7sus4 A7 Dm
Oh, they think it will make their lives easier
A7sus4 A7 Gm7
And God knows, up till now it's been hard
Dm Am Cm Gm
But the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am/D Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E
On the turn of a friendly ca-ard
Dm Am Cm Gm
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am/D Dm C Dm7
On the turn of a friendly ca-ard
|Dm Am |Bb Dm |Dm Am/D |Dm Dm/E Dm/F Dm/E |
Dm Am Bb Dm
But a pilgrim must follow in search of a shrine
Dm Am/D Dm Am/D Dm
As he enters inside the cathedral
