That's the way that we built this town 
    F        C          G          Am 
The banker's ledger, we watched it rise

A house of cards and a pack of lies

A house of cards and a pack of lies 


     F        C           G         Am 
They sold you plastic and took your ace 
    F         C            G       Am 
The suits and ties and the joker's face 
    F           C       G       Am 
And now there's nowhere left to hide 
       F        C           G       Am 
Than a house of cards and a pack of lies

A house of cards and a pack of lies

The times were easy, we did the deal

We placed out bets, but they spun the wheel

  F        C           G       Am 
A house of cards and a pack of lies

Smoke and mirrors, the market crash 
   F        C       G         Am 
We burnt it down to stone and ash 
   F        C           G     Am 
We lit the fires of our own demise 
       F        C           G       Am

In the house of cards and a pack of lies

But it ain't worth nothing, now the money's gone

The only shelter that credit buys 
     F        C           G       Am 
Is a house of cards and a pack of lies 
  F        C           G       Am 
A house of cards and a pack of lies
