VERSE:
           Em
Life is a long road
Am
A-full of dust and gravel
D
It can lead you to a pot of gold
C                     Em
Or it can come unraveled

Em
Love is a sweet high,
Am
It can leave you cold as ice
     D
And make you wanna put your heart back in the fire,
 C
Back in the fire for one more try, yeah


CHORUS:
 Em
Sometimes you get diamonds,
Am
Sometimes you get coal
 C
There ain't no way of knowing
 D
Which way it's gonna go

        Em
It can make you feel like you're on top of the world
    Am
Or leave you all in shambles
   C
Depending on how the dice is rolled,
      D
Your heart is

** (Can play INTRO riff starting here) **

              Em    Am
The card you gamble
          C
Card you gamble
          D
Mm mm mm mmm


VERSE:
                     Em
Every word that you ever said
       Am
Keeps running around in your mind
 D
You count your blessings and your regrets
 C
Like a pocket full of nickels and dimes
D
No matter how hard you try


CHORUS:
 Em
Sometimes you get diamonds,
Am
Sometimes you get coal
 C
There ain't no way of knowing
 D
Which way it's gonna go

        Em
It can make you feel like you're on top of the world
    Am
Or leave you all in shambles
   C
Depending on how the dice is rolled,
      D
Your heart is

              Em    Am
The card you gamble
          C
Card you gamble
          D
