Verse:
Gb
Db
I
don't wanna
talk,
about
things we've
gone through
Abm
Db
Though
it's
hurting
me, now
it's history….
I've played all my cards, and
that's what you've done
too. Nothing more to say,
no more ace to play.
Chorus:
Gb
Bb7/D
Ebm
The
winner
takes
it all,
the
loser
standing small
Eb
Ab
Beside
the
victory,
that's
her destiny….
Verse: I was in your arms,
thinking I belonged there.
I figured it made sense,
building me a fence, building me
a home. Thinking I'd be
strong there, but I was a fool,
playing by the rules.
Chorus: The Gods may throw
a dice, their minds as cold as
ice, and someone way down here,
loses someone dear. The
winner takes it all, the loser
has to fall, it's simple and
it's plain why should I
complain?
Verse: But tell me, does
she kiss like I used to kiss
you. Does it feel the
same, when she calls your
name. Somewhere deep
inside, you must know I miss
you. But what can I say,
rules must be obeyed.
Chorus: The judges will
decide, the likes of me
abide. Spectators of the
show always staying low.
The game is on again, a lover or
a friend, a big thing or a
small, the winner takes it all.
Verse: I don't wanna talk
if it makes you feel sad, and I
understand you've come to shake
my hand. I apologize, if
it makes you feel bad seeing me
so tense, no self confidence,
but you see…. The winner
takes it all, the winner takes
it all….
(so the winner takes it all, and
the loser, has to fall….)
