A Turn Of a Friendly Card


|Dm   A7/C#   |Bb    Am    |Gm   Am Am7/G|Dm        |



|Dm   A7/C#   |Bb    Am    |Gm   Am Am7/G|Dm        |



          Dm        Am        Bb             Dm
There are unsmiling faces and bright plastic chains


      Dm          Am7/D  Dm   /E   /F  /E
And a wheel in perpetual motion


                    Am        Bb          Dm
And they follow the races and pay out the gains


                   Am7/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        Am7/D    Dm   /E  /F  /E
On the turn of a friendly card


        Dm         Am             Cm            Gm
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends


       Dm         Am7/D   Dm    C   Bbmaj7
On the turn of a friendly card


          Dm          Am           Bb         Dm
There's a sign in the desert that lies to the west


          Am7/D                         Dm
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            Am7/D       Dm
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        Am7/D     Dm   /E /F /E 
On the turn of a friendly card


        Dm         Am             Cm            Gm
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends


       Dm        Am7/D    Dm    C    Bbmaj7
On the turn of a friendly card


|Dm    Am    |Bb    Dm   |Dm    Am7/D   |Dm  /E /F /E |


      Dm           Am        Bb          Dm
But a pilgrim must follow in search of a shrine


      Dm       Am7/D       Dm
As he enters inside the cathedral
