[Verse 1]
There was trouble in the [Em]air
Just a subtle hint of [C]danger[D]
And a woman dressed in black
Out lookin' [Bm]for as[C]tranger[Em]
Well she took me to her room
Where she offered me [C]a wager[D]
She promised me the moon
So I [B]took a [Em]chance

[Verse 2]
Yes I [Am]played the King of Hearts
Put my [D]cards out on the table
[G]I thought the odds
were in my [C]fa vor
But she [Am]laid the Ace [C]of Spades
An' I [D]wound up where I star[G]ted
The [D]King of Hearts no more
But the [Am]King [C]of the Bro[B]ken-
[Em]hearted
[C][Em][C]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
She cut the deck one more
By the light of thirteen [C]candles[D]
