D#m    G#m           C#              F#
The casino floor is full of men so frightened
D#m G#m              C#
Trying to make good pay
D#m G#m
To win or lose
     C#               F#
We know just how our night ends
D#m    G#m          C#
Gonna throw it all away

Chorus:
B       A#m           G#m              F#
Oh, but suddenly you draw the queen of diamonds
B    A#m       G#m                F#
And everyone around you turns to silence
B       A#m              G#m            F#    C#
Another plea to keep the repo man from dialing your name
A#m  B     C#
Again and again

You think of all the gifts that you would give her
Trying to make her stay, oh
And you remember all the love she carried with her
Like a bitter cheap champagne​

Chorus:
Now that's history, you've drawn the queen of diamonds
It'll be limousines and Caribbean islands
You can't wait to see her standing there just smiling
For a change, change, for a change
What a fools game, oh

A                           E  
Those whiskey drinks, they give you your ambition
G                          D  
While the bar ladys, they work for their commission
F                       C                 D          E
But it doesn't stop a sucker like you wishing, and away

D        C#m            Bm               A
Oh, how can it be you draw the queen of diamonds
D        C#m             Bm     A
It was limousines and caribbean islands
D         C#m               Bm              A       E
What you didn't see is the dealer, he was hiding an ace
C#m  D E          C#m7
An ace, what an ace
     C#m             Bm
What a cruel, cruel game, oh
