i. The Turn Of A Friendly Card I
Key: Dm
Dm Fug | Bb Am | Gm Am | Dm A Dm |
Dm Fug | Bb Am | Gm Am | Dm A Dm |
There are Dmunsmiling Amfaces and bBbright plastic chDmains
And a Dmwheel in perpAetual mDmotion
And they Dmfollow the Amraces and pBbay out the gDmains
With no sDmhow of an Aoutward emoDmtion
And they tAhink it will make their lives eDmasier
For God Aknows up till now it's been hGmard
But the gDmame never eAmnds when your wEbhole world depenGmds
On the tDmurn of a fAmriendly caDmrd
No the Dmgame never Amends when your whoEble world depeGmnds
On the Dmturn of a friAmendly caDmrd
There's a Dmsign in the dAmesert that lBbies to the weDmst
Where you cDman't tell the Anight from the sunDmrise
And not Dmall the king's Amhorses and aBbll the king's meDmn
Have prevDmented the Afall of the Dmunwise
And theyA think it will make their livesDm easier
For God Aknows up till now it's been hGmard
But the gDmame never eAmnds when your wEbhole world depenGmds
On the tDmurn of a fAmriendly caDmrd
No the Dmgame never Amends when your whoEble world depeGmnds
On the Dmturn of a friAmendly caDmrd

Version 2:
In this version I left out everything I was unsure about and I spent another hour on
all the chords fit with the right words. I hope it was worth it. Please vote.
Version 2.1:
In this version I changed a few notes in the first part of the last solo.
