Biography:
Singer-songwriter-pianist Taylor Giacoma is quickly becoming known on the indie music scene for a distinctive style that has been described both as folky pop and poppy folk - and is probably neither.

If the movers and shakers
Fm Cm
Were all at the table
Fm Bb
And the low cards were willing
Fm G
And the queen she was able
Cm Ab
Would you just hide your aces
Fm Cm
Away up your sleeve
Fm Bb
And wait for the jacks
Fm Bb
And the kings to take leave
Fm
Or would you for once in your life
Bb
Play the game
Fm Bb
And raise all the stakes
Fm Bb
And risk your good name
Would you play yours face up
Fm Bb
And face front at the lineup
Fm Bb
Without counting your diamonds
Fm G
Or hoarding your hearts up
Cm Ab
Could you once in your life
Fm Cm
Just go way too far
Fm Bb
And show all the kingdom
Fm Bb
The joker you are
Said the man to the dealer
Fm Bb
Are they stacked in my favor
Fm Bb
How is my hand
Fm Bb
And what should I wager
I've little left to lose
Fm Bb
And I'm fresh out of aces
Fm Bb
I can't see their cards
Fm Bb
And I can't read their faces
Eb
Said the dealer to the man
Bb Eb
There's a lot on the table
Ab Eb
So play what you can
Bb
And bet what you're able
Eb Ab
'Cause it's more than a game
Bb Eb
And there's more here at stake
Ab Eb
Than the cards that you play
Bb
Or the bets that you make
And beware of the king
Fm Bb
Lest he force you to choose
Ab Eb
'Cause he doesn't know
Fm G
What you win if you lose
Cm Ab
So I'd play all I can
Fm Cm
And I'd bet all I got
Fm Bb
And I'd leave the table knowing
Fm G
That I had given it my best shot
Cm Ab
'Cause son this is the game
Fm Cm
Yeah, and these are the cards
Fm Bb
So play all of yours
Fm Bb
Like the joker you are
