when life deals you a hand you don’t throw it away
the cards that you dAmraw are the cards that you Dplay
some don’t give a Cdamn,
some give it there Gall
some of us Amfly....Dbut all of us Gfall

Dsome spiral down in a Gcircle 
Csome climb to steeply and Gstall
Csome make the bet some Gponder it yet 
some Ampass, some raise, some Dcall
