Verse 1:
AmA cardboard hFead I sGee
Has found its way to me
It’s old and it’s old and it’s old
Making me cry
Verse 2:
I sleep but I will not move
Too scared to leave my room
But I won’t be defeated, oh no
Pre-Chorus:
What if cards don’t go my way
And it’s sure to spoil my day
But in voices loud and clear
Chorus:
FWhat if cGards don’t go my Fway
It’ll surely spoil my day
You say to me “it’s only superstitioFnEm  G  
It’s only your imagination
It’s all of the things that you fear
And the things from which you can’t explain”
Verse 3:
Keep clean for the thousand time
Stand still and wait and line
Some numbers are badder than others, oh no
Pre-Chorus:
What if cards don’t go my way
And it’s sure to spoil my day
But in voices loud and clear
Chorus
Bridge:
But it’s making me cry
And it’s making me cry
And I’m slipping away
And I’m slipping away
