The Winner Takes It All

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


[Chorus]
                    A#
The winner takes it all;
                   Gm
The loser standing small
                Cm
Beside the victory;
                F
That s her destiny


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


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


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


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


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

But you see,
                    A#   Gm  Cm  F
The winner takes it all
                    A#   Gm  Cm  F
The winner takes it all

A#  Gm  Cm  F  3x
