       Bb           Am       Gm
It was my fault, my move, my game
       Bb             Am              Gm
If I’d known a little more, I’d a run away
       Bb       Am             Gm
It was dark out and I held the cards
          Bb     Am            Gm
I was the dealer and it wasn’t hard

          Bb              F
I was the mistress of my fate
          Am              Bb
I was the card shark
          Bb              F

I was the mistress of my fate
          Am              Bb
I gave it all out
          Bb              F

       Bb           Am          Gm
It was my fault, my move, and my wine
          Bb        Am
I see the sun now
             Gm
And it still shines
           Bb         Am
But it was dark out
               Gm
And I held the cards
               Bb       Am
Ooh, I was the dealer
              Gm
And it wasn’t hard

          Bb              F
I was the mistress of my fate
          Am              Bb
I was the card shark
          Bb              F
If I’d a looked a little ahead
          Am              Bb
I’d a run away
          Bb              F
I was the mistress of my fate
          Am              Bb
I gave it all out
          Bb              F
