                    Em (022000@1)               AThough (x02220@1)it's hurting me, now it's history
                   D (xx0232@1)                           AI've (x02220@1)played all my cards, and that's what you've done too

           D (xx0232@1)                     Bm7The (x20202@1)winner takes it all, the loser standing small
           Em (022000@1)                 ABeside (x02220@1)the victory - that's her destiny


             D (xx0232@1)                 AI (x02220@1)was in your arms, thinking I belonged there
                  Em (022000@1)                 AI (x02220@1)figured it made sense, building me a fence
              D (xx0232@1)                   ABuilding (x02220@1)me a home, thinking I'd be strong there
            Em (022000@1)                 ABut (x02220@1)I was a fool, playing by the rules


             D (xx0232@1)                          Bm7The (x20202@1)gods may throw a dice, their minds as cold as ice
            Em (022000@1)                        AAnd (x02220@1)someone way down here loses someone dear


           D (xx0232@1)                     Bm7The (x20202@1)winner takes it all, the loser has to fall
            Em (022000@1)                          AIt's (x02220@1)simple and it's plain - why should I complain?


                     D (xx0232@1)                 ABut (x02220@1)tell me does she kiss like I used to kiss you?
                 Em (022000@1)                A (x02220@1)
Does it feel the same, when she calls your name?
                 D (xx0232@1)                    ASomewhere (x02220@1)deep in-side, you must know I miss you
               Em (022000@1)                ABut (x02220@1)what can I say? Rules must be obeyed.


                D (xx0232@1)                  Bm7The (x20202@1)judges will decide, the likes of me abide
           Em (022000@1)                        ASpectators (x02220@1)of the show, always staying low


            D (xx0232@1)                Bm7The (x20202@1)game is on again - a lover or a friend
            Em (022000@1)                             AA (x02220@1)big thing or a small - the winner takes it all


              D (xx0232@1)                   AI (x02220@1)don't wanna talk, if it makes you feel sad
           Em (022000@1)                            AAnd (x02220@1)I understand - you've come to shake my hand
       D (xx0232@1)                  AI (x02220@1)apologize if it makes you feel bad
             Em (022000@1)                 ASeeing (x02220@1)me so tense - no self-confidence


                        D (xx0232@1)            Bm7 (x20202@1)|
