----------------------------------------------------------
I don't [G]wanna talk
About the things we've g[D]one through
Though it's hurt[Am]ing me
Now it's history[D]
[(G]I've pla[D]yed all [Am]my cards[D)]
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner takes[G] it all
The loser standi[Em7]ng small
Beside the victo[Am]ry
That's her desti[D]ny
[(G]I was in[D] your ar[Am]ms[D)]
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
[(G]Building[D] me a ho[Am]me[D)]
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules
[(G]The gods[Em7] may thr[Am]ow a dic[D)]e
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
[(G]The winn[Em7]er takes[Am] it all[D)]
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.
[(G]But tell[D] me does[Am] she kis[D)]s
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
[(G]Somewher[D]e deep i[Am]nside[D)]
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
[(G]The judg[D]es will [Am]decide[D)]
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
[(G]The game[Em7] is on a[Am]gain[D)]
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all
[(G]I don't [D]wanna ta[Am]lk[D)]
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
[(G]I apolog[D]ize[Am][D)]
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
[(G]The winn[D]er takes[Am] it all[D)]
The winner takes it all...
