Title: The Winner Takes It All
Artist: ABBA
(By P.Zucconelli)


		GI (320003@1)don't wanna talk
			DAbout (xx0232@1)the things we've gone through
		AmThough (x02210@1)it's hurting me
		DNow (xx0232@1)it's history
(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

		GThe (320003@1)winner takes it all
		Em7
The loser standing small
		AmBeside (x02210@1)the victory
		DThat's (xx0232@1)her destiny


(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

(G	Em7	AmD) (x02210@1)The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
(G	Em7	AmD) (x02210@1)The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.


(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
(G	Em7	AmD) (x02210@1)The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all


(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence

But you see
(G	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x02210@1">Am	D)
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...
