          ACES   Suzy Bogguss



Intro chords:  D# G# Fm A# Fm Gm G# A# 



D#                 G#         Fm

Well my old friend    said to me

               A#              D#

That I ain't being what I'm suppose to be

D#                G#          Fm 

Well I don't know   could be true

          A#             Fm       D#

I know I wasn't always there for you



CHORUS I:

D#                            Fm 

Now you're ready to walk out You're ready to run

            A#

Talk to me Can't you see

         Fm           Gm          G#         A#

I would never want to do what it seems I've done

     D#                          G#              Fm

You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play

      A#                                Fm    D#   

Don't let this be the reason you would walk a-way





D#                   G#          Fm

The things you think    I should do

               A#           D#  

I've never understood that part of you

D#                   G#          Fm                 

You know I've tried     to be friends

               A#            Fm   D#

But you feel undermined and hurt again



CHORUS II:

D#                                          Fm

Now don't let it convince you Please don't take it to heart

                  A#            Fm          Gm         G#         A#

Compromise and realize You can never really run every-thing you start

D#                              Fm 

You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play

       A#                               Fm     D#

Don't let this be the reason you would walk a-way

Go to lead

D#                 G#            Fm 

And I guess I said    I couldn't see

                  A#                    D#  

How things could turn out like they've come to be

D#            G#      Fm          A#             Fm       D#      

And if I lie     If I knew I was only trying to think of you



Go to chorus I repeat last line for ending
