[Intro] | C | C | [Verse 1]
      C               D7
There was a man,    a lonely man

    G7                            D7   C
Who lost his love,  through his indifference

  C                        D7
A heart that cared,   that went unshared

  G7                       C       
Until it died,  within his silence
[Pre-Chorus]
G7   C
 And solitaire's the only, game in town.

     Am7                              Am
And  every road that takes him, takes him down

      Dm7                      G
While life goes on around him, everywhere

             F   C
He's playing solitaire. (solitaire)
[Chorus]
C
And keeping to himself, begins to deal

    Am
And still the king of hearts, is well concealed

Dm             Dm7            G      
Another lose-a-game, comes to an end

G7               F    C      G           C
  And deals them out again. (out again)
[Verse 2]
  C                   D7
A little hope,   goes up in smoke

     G7                          C
Just how it goes,   goes without saying

      C              D7
There was a man,   a lonely man

    G             G7              C       G
Who would command,  the hand he's playing 
[Pre-Chorus]
    C
And solitaire's the only, game in town

    Am
And every road that takes him, takes him down

      Dm7                      G
While life goes on around him, everywhere

G            F   C
He's playing solitaire. (solitaire)
[Chorus]
C
And keeping to himself, begins to deal.

    Am
And still the King of Hearts, is well concealed.

Dm             Dm7            G      
Another lose-a-game, comes to an end

G7               F    C      G
  And deals them out again. (out again)
[Coda]
    C
And solitaire's the only, game in town

And every road that takes him, takes him down

Life goes on around him, everywhere
