Alan Parsons Project - Turn Of A Friendly Card

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ Dm ]
there are unsmiling faces and bright plastic chains

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
and a wheel in perpetual motion

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ Dm ]
and they follow the races and pay out the gains

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
with no show of an outward emotion

[ A ] [ Dm ]
and they think it will make their lives easier

[ A ] [ Gm ]
for god knows up till now it’s been hard

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ D# ] [ Dm ]
but the game never ends when your whole world depends

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
on the turn of a friendly card

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ D# ] [ Dm ]
no the game never ends when your whole world depends

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
on the turn of a friendly card

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ Dm ]
there’s a sign in the desert that lies to the west

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
where you can’t tell the night from the sunrise

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ Dm ]
and not all the king’s horses and all the king’s men

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
have prevented the fall of the unwise

[ A ] [ Dm ]
and they think it will make their lives easier

[ A ] [ Gm ]
for god knows up till now it’s been hard

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ D# ] [ Dm ]
but the game never ends when your whole world depends

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
on the turn of a friendly card

[ Dm ] [ C ] [ D# ] [ Dm ]
no the game never ends when your whole world depends

[ Dm ] [ A ] [ Dm ]
