[Intro]
Am
[Verse]
F
I was not the one you wanted
Am F
You can see I'm reconciled
Dm C G
Must you be so disappointed
Dm C G
Can you not carry on in style
Am G/B C
Is it too much to say we loved hard
F C
'Til the world fell back in place
G
And left us where we are
[Chorus]
C G G/B Am
I feel like the king when the queen loses faith
F C
And the crowd rushes in to tear down the gate
C G G/B Am
While the whole palace slept and I never rang the bell
F C
Maybe that's poetic justice, but it's pretty hard to tell
[Verse]
Am F
And when the fortune wheel is spinning
Am F
Luck is fortune's dirty joke
Dm C G
And a player's chance of winning
Dm C G
Is diminished by his hope
Am G/B C
Can't you laugh just to think of the gold
F C
We had running though our hands
G
When we were on a roll
[Chorus]
C G G/B Am
I feel like the king when the queen loses faith
F C
And the crowd rushes in to tear down the gate
C G G/B Am
And declare what was mine I stole from someone else
F C
Maybe that's poetic justice, but it's pretty hard to tell
[Bridge]
E
It's hard to tell
Am F
Why the solid ground surprised us when we fell
C E
It's hard to say, it's life and death
Am F
Or just so many bitter words beneath your breath
[Chorus]
