The Winning Card

Intro

Oh oh

Yeah yeah

Yeah

Chorus

Selling my winning card

Tearing the check to pieces

(Watch it burn)

Selling my winning card

I finally like the struggle

(Watch it turn)

Verse 1

Polished shoes on a Tuesday morning

I stood there in line

Buying a house with a fence I hate

Just to feel like I'm doing fine

(Doing fine)

The ink was wet and ready to dry

Then I saw my face in the glass

I looked like a man already gone

Waiting for the days to pass

Pre-Chorus

No more safe bets

No more white lies

Cutting the tether

Under the summer skies

Chorus

Selling my winning card

Tearing the check to pieces

(Watch it burn)

Selling my winning card

I finally like the struggle

(Watch it turn)

Drop

Tear it up

Watch it burn

Verse 2

Sleeping on a friend's old sofa

Salt on a piece of bread

My father calls to say I'm foolish

Lost all the sense in my head

(In my head)

But the air tastes better when it's cold

And my hands have a grip on the wheel

I used to own a view of the park

Now I own the way I feel

Pre-Chorus

No more safe bets

No more white lies

Cutting the tether

Under the summer skies

Chorus

Selling my winning card

Tearing the check to pieces

(Watch it burn)

Selling my winning card

I finally like the struggle

(Watch it turn)

Bridge

Hungry

Happy

Hired for nothing

I walked away from the mountain of gold

(Gold)

To find a rock that I could hold

(Hold)

Clean start

True heart

Broken and whole

Chorus

Selling my winning card

Tearing the check to pieces

(Watch it burn)

Selling my winning card

I finally like the struggle

(Watch it turn)

Drop

Burn it down

Burn it down

Watch it turn

(Tear it up)

Watch it turn

(Tear it up)
