Verse 1
C
There is a man who cares a lot,
Em
fightin' fair for all he's got.
Dm
Virtues in the way he holds,
G
so tightly to the life he molds.
Em
he struggles to gain all they need.
Dm
But something in him longs for more,
G
he twists the knife right to the core.
Am
If he could say what yearning is,
G
F
he works to fill all needs but his, his blind and hard -won
G
pride is chased by shame, oh,
C
he who learns the rules might lose the game.
A woman makes a choice to build,
Em
Dm
gives herself to child and man, trying hard to understand
G
how they break and how they mend.
C
But her lips once kissed in red,
Em
are drained of color, dull and dead.
Dm
She has no time to long for more,
G
but life seems harsh and pleasure's poor.
Am
If she could save for what she earns,
G
she works to fill all needs but hers.
She followed all the rules
F
Life is really what it seems,
Em
the dealer's workin' his own schemes
F
When chips are down and
G
stakes are up in flames
The one who risks his heart will
C
Em
Dm
G
take the game
C
Now they've abandoned
dreams too wild
Em
Aimed hope on their only child
Dm
Who turns against them, runs away
G
Scornful of the price they pay
C
So they sit and count their fears,
Em
paupers in their golden years
Dm
The demon rears his double head,
G
should have done and should have said
Am
Now they know what yearning is,
G
their work has somehow led to this
F
And all their earnest pride
They played by all the rules
F
Yeah, their blind and hard -won
G
pride is washed in shame
Oh, he who learns the rules might lose
C
Em
Dm
G
C
the game
