The Winner Takes It All

												
              F#
I don't wanna talk
              C#
About the things we've gone through
              G#m
Though it's hurting me
        C#
Now it's history

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

               F#
The winner takes it all
                    D#m
The loser standing small
              G#m
Beside the victory
               C#
That's her destiny

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

(F#    D#m    G#m    C#)
The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear

(F#    D#m    G#m    C#)
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain?


(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

(F#    D#m    G#m    C#)
The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low

(F#    D#m    G#m    C#)
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand

(F#    C#    G#m    C#)
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence

But you see...

(F#    D#m    G#m    C#)
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...
