[Intro]
F#m
F#m C#m7 F#m Bm C#
F#m C#m7 F#m C# C B A F#m

[Verse 1]
F#m C#m7 F#m
The boys play cards and they don't care
Bm C#
A breeze blows in from off the sea
F#m C#m7 F#m
It's warm outside but I'm aware
C# C B A F#m
It's neither here nor there to me
D E7 A
I can hear the cooks in the kitchen
Bm D C#
The sprinklers on the lawns
F#m C#m7 F#m
My knights out there have both been pitching
C# C B A
I have sacrificed a pawn
F#m
It's chess

[Bridge]
F#m C#m7 F#m Bm C#
F#m C#m7 F#m C# C B A F#m

[Verse 2]
F#m C#m7 F#m
A little mouse could trip that wire
Bm C#
You won't be going anywhere
F#m C#m7 F#m
Your noble house will be on fire
C# C B A F#m
And you trapped in that golden chair
D E7 A
Surrounded by your works of art
Bm D C#
The flames will do their worst
F#m C#m7 F#m
You may be rich, you may be smart
C# C B A
But the truth will finish first
F#m
It's Chess

[Bridge]
F#m C#m7 F#m Bm C#
F#m C#m7 F#m C# C B A F#m
