Intro
Em    Am   D   G G/F# (4x)
Verse 1
Em    Am           D            G G/F#
The casino floor is full of men so frightened
Em    Am           D
Trying to make good pay
Em    Am
To win or lose
D                   G G/F#
We know just how our night ends
Em    Am           D
Gonna throw it all away
Chorus
C       Bm           Am              G
Oh, but suddenly you draw the queen of diamonds
C       Bm           Am              G
And everyone around you turns to silence
C       Bm           Am              G      D
Another plea to keep the repo man from dialing your name
Bm  C     D
Again and again
Bm7     Bm     Am

Em    Am           D
Trying to make her stay, oh
Em    Am           D            G G/F#
And you remember all the love she carried with her
Em    Am           D
Like a bitter cheap champaign
C       Bm           Am              G
Now that's history, you've drawn the queen of diamonds

It'll be limousines and caribbean islands
C           Bm           Am              G
You can't wait to see her standing there just smiling
D            Bm   C       D    Bm7
For a change, change, for a change
   Bm          Am
What a fools game, oh
