[Verse 1]
D
Midnight..and I'm a-waiting on the twelve-oh-five.
G
Hoping it'll take me just a little farther down the line.
D
Moonlight..you're just a heartache in disguise..
won't you keep my heart from breaking if it's only for
G
a very short time?
[Chorus]
A G D A
Playing with the queen of hearts..knowing it ain't
D G
really smart.
G A D G A D
The joker ain't the only fool..who'll do anything for you.
A G D A D G
Laying out another lie..thinking 'bout a life of crime.
G A D G A D
That's what I'll have to do..to keep me away from you.
[Verse 2]
D
Honey, you know it makes you mad..why is everybody telling
G
everybody what you have done?
D
Baby, I know it makes you sad..but when they're handing out
G
the heartaches, you know you got to have you some.
[Chorus]
A G D A
Playing with the queen of hearts..knowing it ain't

Laying out another lie..thinking 'bout a life of crime.

D
Lovers, I know you've had a few..but hide your heart beneath
G
the covers and tell 'em they're the only one.
D
And others..they know just what I'm going through.
G
And it's hard to be a lover when you say you're only in it for fun.
[Chorus]
