Meryl Streep [|] The Winner Takes It All [|] Mamma Mia Chords

_ _ _ Donna, _ listen to me.
_ This is about us.
I don't [Fm] want to talk _ [F] _ _ _ about things we've gone through.
[G] _ [D] Though it's [G] hurting me, _ _ _ now [C] it's history.
_ _ [D] _ _ [E] [F] I've played all my cards, _ and that's [C] what you've done too.
_ _ Nothing [Gm]
more to say, _ no more [C] ace to play.
_ _ The winner takes [A#] it [F] all, _ _ [C#] losers [Dm] [G] standing [Dm] small.
[G] _ [D] _ Beside [Gm] the victory, _ _ _ _ that's her [Fm] destiny.
[C] _ _ _ _ I was [F] in your _ [G] arms, _ [F] thinking [C] I belonged _ [Em] there.
[C] I figured it [Gm] made sense, _ _ building [C] me a _ fence.
_ _ Building [F] me a home, _ thinking [C] I'd be strong [Em] there.
_ [C] But I [Gm] was a fool, _ _ _ playing [C] by the rules.
_ The gods [F] make throw the _ dice, [C#] their [Dm] minds as [G] cold as [Dm] ice.
[Am] [D] And [G] someone [C] way down [Gm] here, _ loses [C] someone _ dear.
The winner [Fm] takes [A#] it all, [F] _ _ the [C#] loser [Dm] [G] has to [Dm] fall.
_ [A] _ [D] It's simple [Gm] and it's play, _ _ _ why [C] should I complain?
_ _ _ Tell [F] me, does she kiss, _ _ like [C] I used to kiss you?
_ _ Does it [Gm] feel the same, _ _ when she [C] calls your _ [D] name?
_ [C] Somewhere [F] deep _ inside, _ _ [C] I miss you.
_ But what [Gm] can I say, _ _ _ _ rules [C] must be _ _ obeyed.
The judges [F] will decide, _ the [C#] likes of [Dm] me abide.
_ _ _ [D] _
[Gm] Spectators at the show, _ _ _ _ _
[C] stay in line.
_ The game is [F] on again, _ _ _ [C#] lover [Dm] [G] or a [Dm] friend.
[D] A big [Gm] thing lasts long, _ _ when it [C] takes you long. _ _ _ _
_ _ I don't want to talk, _ _ _ _ cause it makes me feel sad.
_ _ And I [Gm] understand, _ _ _ I've come to [C] shake my head.
[Dm] _
_ [C] _ I [F] apologize, _ _ _ _ _ if it makes [C] you feel bad.
_ _ Seeing [Gm] me so _ _ tensed, no self [C] confidence.
[Gm] But [F] you [C] see, the winner [F] takes it all.
_ [C#] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ The [Gm] winner, _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ [C#] takes [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ it all. _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ The _ _ _
[C#] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Gm] winner, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] takes it _ _ _ all. _ _ _ _ _
