Capo 2nd Fret – Standard Tuning
I have a video lesson on this song on youtube under youtube.com/gally042 or just search
gally042 Poker Face lesson.
The chord above each section of the song are those chords that pertain obviously to that
If you see Em Em C D it means you play two measures of Em then one measure of C and D.
The multiplier ex. Em Em C D x2 means you play that set of chords twice before moving
the next section.

Em Em C D x 4
I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas plays,
Fold em' let em' hit me, raise it, baby stay with me, (I love it)
Luck and intuition play the cards with spades to start,
And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart
Em C G D x 2
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Em C G D x 2
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She gotta love nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She gotta love nobody)
Em Em C D x 2
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)

Em Em C D x 4
I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you're with me
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it's love, if its not rough it isn't fun
Em C G D x 2
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Em C G D x 2

(She gotta love nobody)

Em Em C D x 2
I won't tell you that I love you
Kiss or hug you
Cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin
I'm not lying
I'm just stunnin'
With my love-glue-gunning
Em Em C D x 2
Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand 'cause I'm marvelous
Em C G D x 2
Can't read my, can't read my

No he can't read my poker face
(She gotta love nobody)
