I don’t wanna [F]talk about the things we’ve [C]gone through
Though it’s hurting [Gm]me, now it’s histo- [C]ry
I’ve played all my [F]cards and that’s what you’ve [C]done too
Nothing more to [Gm]say, no more ace to [C]play
The winner [F]takes it all the loser [Dm7]standing small
Beside the [Gm]victory that’s her [C]destiny
I was in your [F]arms thinking I be [C]longed there
I figured it made [Gm]sense building me a [C]fence
Building me a [F]home thinking I’d be [C]strong there
But I was a [Gm]fool playing by the [C]rules
The gods may [F]throw a dice, their minds as [Dm7]cold as ice
And someone [Gm]way down here loses someone [C]dear
The winner [F]takes it all, the loser [Dm7]has to fall
it’s simple [Gm]and it’s plain, why should I com- [C]plain
But tell me does she [F]kiss, like I used to [C]kiss you
Does it feel the [Gm]same, when she calls [C]your name
Somewhere deep [F]inside, you must know I [C]miss you
But what can I [Gm]say, rules must be [C]obeyed
The judges will [F]decide, the likes of [Dm7]me abide
Spectators [Gm]of the show, always staying [C]low
The game is [F]on again, a lover [Dm7]or a friend
A big thing [G]or a small, the winner takes it [C]all
I don’t wanna [F]talk, if it makes you [C]feel sad
And I under- [Gm]stand, you’ve come to shake my [C]hand
I apolo- [F]gize, if it makes you [C]feel bad
Seeing me so [Gm]tense, no self-confi –[C]dence
But you see, the winner [F]takes it all [Dm7]the winner [Gm]takes it all
