Em The joker rides the subway G Stealing glances to his left C As the queen of diamonds sashays on G In a brand new vintage dress Bm And he swears he can recall her C G From a hand he did not play G C But he's sure he probably don't know her at all G So he looks away [Verse 2] Em He's a masochistic poet G He's an angel without wings C He's an acrobat who gambles G 'Til he loses everything Bm She's a sycophantic jester C G She is all the things he'd like to push away G C But somehow she knows the corners of his soul G And makes him wanna stay [Chorus] C And he sings, "Oh Aphrodite Em Let your hair fall long G I'll lay naked here beside you Em Whisper you a country song C That I heard out on the AM Em But I can't say I know all the words" [Verse 3] Em The demon that's been chasing him G Has finally bowed its head C And the sweet repose that comes with tasting freedom G Is not far away I swear Bm When the answer to your prayers is hanging inches C G From your outstretched trembling hands G C That's the time to mine the diamonds on the inside G Let's just all breathe deep again
