I don't wanna [F#]
talk about [C#] things we've gone through
Though it's hurting [G#m] me, now it's [C#] history I've played [F#] all my cards and that's [C#] what
you've done too Nothing more to [G#m] say, [G#] no more [C#] ace to play
The winner takes [F#] it all, [D] the loser's [D#m] standing small
[D#]
Beside the [G#m] victory, that's our [C#] destiny I [F#] was in your eyes, thinking [C#] I belonged there
I figured [G#m] it made sense, building [C#] me a fence Building [F#] me a home, thinking [C#] I'd be strong
there But I [G#m] was a fool, playing [C#] by the rules
The gods [F#] may growl, their [D] [A#] minds as [D#m] cold as ice And [G#m] someone weeps out, [C#] loses someone dear
The winner [F#] takes it all, the loser [D#m] has to fall It's simple [G#m] and it's plain, why [C#] should I complain?
But tell [F#] me, does she kiss, like I [C#] used to kiss you?
Does it feel [G#m] the same, when she [C#] calls your name?
[F#] Somewhere deep inside, you must [C#] know I miss you
But [G#m] what can I say, rules must [C#] be obeyed
The judge [F#] is weird as I, the likes [D#m] of me are mine
[G#m] Spectators on the show,
[C#] her game is [F#] on A lover [A#] [D#m] or a friend, [D#] a big thing or [G#m] a small
small
I [C#]
[F#] don't wanna talk, if it [C#] makes you feel sad And I [G#m] understand, you've come to [C#] shake my hand
I [F#] apologize, if it [C#] makes you feel bad Seeing me [G#m] so tense,
[C#] [G#m] no self [C#]-confidence
[F#] But you see, [C#] the winner [F#] takes it all
