Verse 1
In this room I'm
sitting by your side
It rains for hours and
the phone is off its hook
Standing on the edge casting
lots to set me up before
you knock me down
off the summer's edge
and drown me We're
betting on our own lives
making up for all the time we lost
Chorus 1
Beat swtiched from standard 4/4 to 3/4
In this house of cards we're
all holding hearts and spades
(one breath one step
could knock it all down)
but you lead with your
eyes and you give it away
(decide, design to
cut from the clouds)
When the people you love
get lost in the shuffle
(when you leave you leave
nothing but broken heart)
A D-- x2
you let it go and then you fold
Verse 2
Beat swithed back from 3/4 to 4/4
So we stay on the open road
We drive for hours and still
no end in sight at all
Driving in your car miss the
stop sign fall in love
just to get knocked out
summer's edge
and drown me We're
betting on our own lives
making up for all the time we lost
Chorus 2
Beat swtiched from standard 4/4 to 3/4
In this house of cards we're
all holding hearts and spades
(one breath one step
could knock it all down)
but you lead with your
eyes and you give it away
(decide, design to
cut from the clouds)
When the people you love
get lost in the shuffle
(when you leave you leave
(hold) x2
nothing but broken heart)
