Alexander Stewart - House Of Cards

Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Em C G

[Verse 1]
Em C G
Changing flights and changing my mind every day
Em C
I cope with the pain but to be honest
G
Things don’t feel the same
D
Since you left LA
Em C
All the stars couldn’t lead me where you are
G D
Should’ve known that in the dark I’d be too dumb to see
Em C G
Even though you’re laying next to me, can’t give me what I need, oh
D
And God I have some questions

[Chorus]
Em C
How many drinks does it take to walk away
G D
How many times will I f it up and stay
Em C G
I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart
D Em C
‘Til we fall just like a house of cards
G D
Of cards

[Verse 2]
Em C G
Call your bluff, tell me who are you trying to convince
Em
It’s not enough
C G
If your words never lead you to commit
D
You know it feels like shit
Em C
All the stars couldn’t lead me where you are
G D
Should’ve known that in the dark I’d be too dumb to see
Em C G
Even though you’re laying next to me, can’t give me what I need, oh
D
And God I have some questions

[Chorus]
Em C
How many drinks does it take to walk away
G D
How many times will I f it up and stay
Em C G
I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart
D Em C
‘Til we fall just like a house of cards
G D
Of cards

[Bridge]
Am
If we’re made of paper, there’s bound to be flames
Em
I’ll hold us together, but is it in vain?
G D
If one gust of wind could be all that it takes, oh
Am
If we’re made of paper, there’s bound to be flames
Em
I’ll hold us together, but is it in vain?
G
If one gust of wind could be all that it takes
D
All that it takes, all that it takes

[Chorus]
Em C
How many drinks does it take to walk away
G D
How many times will I f it up and stay
Em C G
I don’t know how to love you from afar, you have my heart
D Em C
‘Til we fall just like a house of cards
G D
Of cards
Em C
Of cards
G D
Of cards
