There are unsmiling faces in fetters and chains
Dm Am Dm
On a wheel of perpetual motion

Who belong to all races and answer all names
Dm Am Dm
With no show of outward emotion

And they think it will make their lives easier
Dsus2 A Gm7
But the doorway before them is barred
Dm Am Cm Gm
And the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am Dm
On the turn of a friendly card
Dm Am Cm Gm
No the game never ends when your whole world depends
Dm Am Dm
On the turn of a friendly card
