Love is a Losing Game

Intro:

G7(b9) or (F dim.7) if bass gets the G then playing the F dim.7 is ideal 

Verse 1:

CMaj7        Dmin7
 For you I was a flame,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a losing game.
CMaj7                Dmin7
 Five story fire as you came,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a losing game.

Chorus 1:

Amin7           Dmin7
 One I wish I never played,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Oh what a mess we made.
CMaj7            Dmin7
 And now the final frame,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a losing game.

Interlude:

F dim.7

Verse 2:

CMaj7           Dmin7
 Played out by the band,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a losing hand.
CMaj7          Dmin7
 More than I could stand,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a losing hand.

Chorus 2:
Amin7
 Self professed,
Dmin7
 Profound,
Fmin7             CMaj7
 'Till the chips were down.
CMaj7              Dmin7
 Know you?re a gambling man,
Fmin7      CMaj7
 Love is a losing hand.

Interlude:

F dim.7

Verse 3:

CMaj7           Dmin7
 Though I'm rather blind,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a fate resigned.
CMaj7         Dmin7
 Memories mar my mind,
Fmin7       CMaj7
 Love is a fate resigned.

Chorus 3:

Amin7   Dmin7
 Over futile odds,
Fmin7            CMaj7
 And laughed at by the gods.
CMaj7            Dm7
 And now the final frame,
Fmin7      CMaj7
 Love is a losing game.
