I live my life in chains

Got my hands in chains

And I cant stick with the cards

That I got with a deal

Like this I must insist

That a girls got more to do

Then be the way you think a woman should

Im taking it into my own hands

In this mans land I can understand

Why Im taking command

Had enough of stuff

And now its time to think about me, me yeah

And you can easily gamble your life away

Second after second

And day by day

You play the game or you walk away

Its a new turn on a blue day

And a cool deal of life for me

And its all good

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

But thats not the shape of my heart

Ive always played it safe nothings ever safe

Give me the courage to back my own convictions

Every decision I make I pay it back and more

Now turn the cards and let them fall to me

Cos I dont need to play on with the hand that they have given me

Ill give it back cos its not the way it has to be

And you can easily gamble your life away

Second after second

And day by day

You play the game or you walk away

Its a new turn on a blue day

And a cool deal of life for me

And its all good

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

But thats not the shape of my heart

Thats not the shape

The shape of my heart

My heart

Thats not the shape of my heart

And you can easily gamble your life away

Second after second

And day by day

You play the game or you walk away

Its a new turn on a blue day

And a cool deal of life for me

And its all good

And you can easily gamble your life away

Second after second

And day by day

You play the game or you walk away

Its a new turn on a blue day

And a cool deal of life for me

And its all good

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

But thats not the shape of my heart

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier

I know that the clubs are weapons of war

I know that diamonds mean money for this art

But thats not the shape

The shape of my heart
