Verse C I don't want to talk G7 About the things we've gone through Dm Though it's hurting me G7 Now it's history C I've played all my cards G7 And that's what you've done too Dm Nothing more to say G7 No more ace to play C E The winner takes it all Am A7 The loser standing small Dm Beside the victory G7 That's her destiny Verse C I was in your arms G7 Thinking I belonged there Dm I figured it made sense G7 Building me a fence C Building me a home G7 Thinking I'd be strong there Dm But I was a fool G7 Playing by the rules Pre-Chorus C E The gods may throw a dice Am A7 Their minds as cold as ice Dm And someone way down here G7 Loses someone dear C E The winner takes it all Am A7 The loser has to fall Dm It's simple and it's plain G7 Why should I complain Verse C I don't want to talk G If it makes you feel sad Dm And I understand G You've come to shake my hand C I apologize G If it makes you feel bad Dm Seeing me so tense G No self-confidence Pre-Chorus C E The judges will decide Am A7 The likes of me abide Dm Spectators of the show G7 Always staying low C E The game is on again Am A7 A lover or a friend Dm A big thing or a small G7 The winner takes it all Outro C E The winner takes it all Am A7 mmmmh mmmmmh Dm The winner takes it all G7 C The winner takes it all
