Day into night she's with me,
How sweet is her warm embrace,
Safe in the scent of jasmine,
So safe in her gold and lace.
Mornings I find she's left me,
So cold and so alone, but aware,
I try to escape, she finds me,
Run though I may,
She's there There There There There.....
Luck is a lady whose smile is cold as a stone
She'll bring you things, many things you may never have known.
But when your die is cast, she'll have the final laugh at you
She'll lock you in a duel, where you come out the fool,
Beware of the Queen of Spades,
Her black widow's curse might find you yet.
Beware of the love that you will regret,
Her love means only your death.
Day into night, she's with me,
A turn of a card, she's there,
The first time is free, you know,
But from now on, pay me, me, me, me, me.
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha You Lose
Beware of the queen of spades,
Her black widow's curse might find you yet,
Beware of the love you will regret,
Her love means only your death
Beware of the queen of spades,
Her black widow's curse might find you yet,
Beware of the love you will regret,
Her love means only your death

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official STYX tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
