The Winner Takes It All

        G 
I don't wanna talk
            D 
About the things we've gone through
        Am 
Though it's hurting me
        D 
Now it's history
(G    D    Am    D )
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
        G 
The winner takes it all
        Em7 
The loser standing small
        Am 
Beside the victory
        D 
That's her destiny
(G    D    Am    D )
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
(G    D    Am    D )
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules
(G    Em7    Am    D )
The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
(G    Em7    Am    D )
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.
(G    D    Am    D )
But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
(G    D    Am    D )
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
(G    D    Am    D )
The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
(G    Em7    Am    D )
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all
(G    D    Am    D )
I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
(G    D    Am    D )
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
(G    D    Am    D )
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...
