[Verse 1]
C Dm
How was I to know? It's a crazy thing
F G C
I showed you my hand and you still let me win
C Dm
And who was I to say that this was meant to be?
F G C
The road that was broken brought us together
[Chorus]
Am Dm
And I know you could fall for a thousand kings
G C
And hearts that would give you a diamond ring
Am Dm
When I fold, you see the best in me
G C
The joker and the queen
[Verse 2]
C Dm
I've been played before, if you hadn't guessed
F G C
So I kept my cards closed to my foolproof vest
C
But you called my bluff (Why'd you called my bluff)
Dm
And saw through all my tells (Saw through all my tells)
F G C
And then you went all-in and we left together
[Chorus]
Am Dm
And I know you think that what makes a king
G C
Is gold, a palace and diamond rings
Am Dm
When I fold, you see the best in me
G C
The joker and the queen
C Dm F G C
[Chorus]
Am Dm
And I know you could fall for a thousand kings
G C
And hearts that would give you a diamond ring
Am Dm
When I fold, you saw the best in me
G C
The joker and the queen
Dm G C
The joker and the queen
