The Winner Takes It All

[Verse]
B              E
I don t wanna talk,
                       B
About the things we ve gone through
                   F#m
Though its hurting me,
             B
Now its history
                   E
I ve played all my cards
                       B
And that s what you ve done too
                F#m
Nothing more to say,
               B
No more ace to play


[Chorus]
                    E
The winner takes it all;
                   C#m
The loser standing small
                F#m
Beside the victory;
                B
That s her destiny


[Verse]
              E
I was in your arms,
             B
Thinking I belonged there
                  F#m
I figured it made sense;
              B
Building me a fence
              E
Building me a home,
                B
Thinking I d be strong there
            F#m
But I was a fool;
               B
Playing by the rules


[Chorus]
                     E
The gods may throw a dice,
                       C#m
Their minds as cold as ice
                     F#m
And someone way down here;
              B
Loses someone dear
                    E
The winner takes it all;
                 C#m
The loser has to fall
                    F#m
It s simple and its plain;
                B
Why should I complain?


[Verse]
                     E
But tell me does she kiss,
               B
Like I used to kiss you?
                 F#m
Does it feel the same;
                    B
When she calls your name?
                 E
Somewhere deep inside,
                B
You must know I miss you
               F#m
But what can I say;
               B
Rules must be obeyed


[Chorus]
                  E
The judges will decide,
                 C#m
The likes of me abide
                  F#m
Spectators of the show,
               B
Always staying low
                E
The game is on again,
             C#m
A lover or a friend
                 F#m
A big thing or a small;
                    B
The winner takes it all


[Outro]
              E
I don t wanna talk,
                B
If it makes you feel sad
           F#m
And I understand;
                        B
You ve come to shake my hand
       E
I apologize,
                B
If it makes you feel bad
             F#m
Seeing me so tense;
             B
No self confidence

But you see,
                    E   C#m  F#m  B
The winner takes it all
                    E   C#m  F#m  B
The winner takes it all

E  C#m  F#m  B  3x
