[Verse]
       Am              G
Broken bone and liar's lead
           D/F#               G
Caught off guard and left for dead
           A              G               D/F#   C
Luck keeps turning as the light begins to dull

       Am                G
And by healing hands I'm saved
       D/F#            F
Pulled from my shallow grave
      Am            G                 D/F#   C
I can feel reprisal aching through my skull

       Am                G
Set my sights on shining spires
    D/F#                G
Set out on the highways tired
       A                G              D/F#   C
On the desert sands and ruined roads I roam

    Am                G
And this old lonesome road
      D/F#              F
Shall bring me what I'm owed
          Am             G                  D/F#   C
These new empires on old stones shall be my home

Am          F               G
 To tip the odds and rig the game (deal another hand and play)

 Every card a shift of circumstance
Am         F                 G

 Stack the deck, I'm letting nothing fall to chance

[Bridge]
Em        C          B
 Atop the glistening tower

Watching the struggles for power
Em              C
 The house sees every deal
    B       D
Within this town

Am          F             E
 Behind the gangs and the walls

Keeping a close eye on all
Am           F             E    G
 Old secrets buried in the underground

[Chorus]
Am          F               G
 To tip the odds and rig the game (deal another hand and play)
Am     F               G     E
 Every card a shift of circumstance
Am         F                 G
 Let every bettor stake their claim (deal another hand and play)
Am         F                 B       E
 Stack the deck, I'm letting nothing fall to chance

[Bridge]
Am
Lumbering across the west
C
Ruined treasures repossessed
G                          Am
Resurrect the old soul of America

Am
Laws and labour, structures tight
C
Memories of faded might
G                          Am
Resurrect the old soul of America

    A    C
And oh
    G                             A
The bear is roving out across the west
    A    C
And oh
    G                             A      Am
The bear is roving out across the west

Am G    Bb
Shadows loom
Am  G  Bb
All go soon to war

[Verse]
          Am                       G
Scattered strays who've lost their meaning
       D/F#               G
Brotherhoods who hide and horde
     Am               G
Followers of help and healing
      D/F#            C
The addicted lost and scorned

      Am              G
The secluded rumbling thunder
        D/F#            F
And the spite of prison bars
        Am               G
And the vengeful eyes of wells run dry
     D/F#      C
That watch me afar

[Outro]
A            G                    D/F#            G
 Someday the change will come and wash the doubt away
A                 G                D/F#           C
 The heart of the desert will beat harder on this day

A            G                    D/F#            F
 Someday the change will come and wash the doubt away
A                 G                D/F#           C
 The heart of the desert will beat harder on this day
