The Cards

Tracy Lawrence


Tom: G

 G/D
Here's one from last August, That came out of the blue
           C/D                                               D
Says summer's been a scorcher baby, And I'm still hot on you
 G/D
There must be 25 or more, You signed 'em everyone
              C/D                                 D
Now I'm sitting in this lonely room, Wondering what went wrong

[Chorus]
           C/D                   G/D     C/D               G/D
Oh the cards are on the table, Hallmark at it's best
        C/D                 G/D                   Am                    D
Valintines and anniversaries, Forever yours and all the rest
       C                            D                     G      D/F#     E
I'm sortin' through these memories, Still searchin' for a clue
                                       sus4
Am         D - D
But now the cards are on the table, And he's holding you...

 G/D
The sun comes through the curtains, But I'm still in the dark
           C/D                                            D
These cards that used to touch me, Are tearing me apart
 G/D
I'm torn between tossing them away, Or back up on the shelf
           C/D                                                  D
Guess my poor heart don't want to play, The hand that it's been dealt

Em - F#m - G

[Chorus]
           C/D                   G/D     C/D               G/D
Oh the cards are on the table, Hallmark at it's best
        C/D                 G/D                   Am                    D
Valintines and anniversaries, Forever yours and all the rest
       C                            D                     G      D/F#     E
I'm sortin' through these memories, Still searchin' for a clue
                                       
Am         D - D
But now the cards are on the table, And he's holding you...
       C                           D                     G       D/F#     E
I'm sortin' through these memories, Still searchin' for a clue
                                     
Am         D - D
But now the cards are on the table, And he's holding you...
