Isaac Russell - House of cards

And this house^C is built of cards And the earth is blowin' too^G hard because Dad wo^Cn't stop drinkin and Mom^F won't stop cheatin herself, ^Cand the f^Gamily and m^Ce

And so I lie b^Ceneath it all Watch the king and his queen as they fall^G They say that diamonds ^Care forever And hear^Fts aren't that clever And the su^Cits that we^G parade don't ^Cmean a thing

And it's nev^Fer us to blame A new presc^Dmription with a different name but it tastes the same ^Am So we'll roll ^Fthe dice and play and take our chances ^Dmanyway And if it's ou^Crs, then we're B^Ganking on the love ^Am One in ^Gten can't save u^Fs from The sad statistic we've beco^Gme Seems like they've already wo^Cn

And now our home is g^Crowin cold I look at you, you look at me, we turn and fold^G It seems that I can't stop ^Cdrinking and you^F can't stop cheatin Yoursel^Cf, and our ^Gfamily a^Cnd me

And it's nev^Fer us to blame A new presc^Dmription with a different name but it tastes the same ^Am So we roll ^Fthe dice and play and take our chances ^Dmanyway And if it's ou^Crs, then we're B^Ganking on the love ^Am One in ten ^Gcan't save u^Fs from ^G The sad statistic we've become ^C
