        Dm  G
        C  E7  Am  A
        Dm  G

[Primera Parte]

               C
I don't wanna talk
                        G/B
About the things we've gone through
                     Dm
Though it's hurting me
               G
Now it's history

            C
I've played all my cards
                        G/B     G
And that's what you've done too

                 Dm
Nothing more to say
                 G
No more ace to play

[Refrão 1]

                    C
The winner takes it all
     E7                Am
The loser's standing small
   A             Dm
Beside the victory
                 G
That's her destiny

[Segunda Parte]

                C
I was in your arms

         G
Thinking I belonged there
                   Dm
I figured it made sense
               G
Building me a fence

               C
Building me a home
                   G
Thinking I'd be strong there
             Dm
But I was a fool
                G
Playing by the rules

[Refrão 2]

                   C
The gods may throw a dice
       E7              Am
Their minds as cold as ice
     A                Dm
And someone way down here
                G
Loses someone dear

                     C
The winner takes it all
     E7           Am
The loser has to fall
      A                Dm
It's simple and it's plain
                   G
Why should I complain

[Tercera Parte]

              C
But tell me, does she kiss
                G
Like I used to kiss you?
                  Dm
Does it feel the same
                     G
When she calls your name?

                  C
Somewhere deep inside
                 G
You must know I miss you
                Dm
But what can I say?
                G
Rules must be obeyed

[Refrão 3]

                   C
The judges will decide
     E7           Am
The likes of me abide
  A                 Dm
Spectators of the show
                G
Always staying low

                 C
The game is on again
   E7           Am
A lover or a friend
   A               Dm
A big thing or a small
                     G
The winner takes it all

[Ponte]

               C
I don't wanna talk
                 G
If it makes you feel sad
             Dm
And I understand
                         G
You've come to shake my hand

        C
I apologize
                 G
If it makes you feel bad
              Dm
Seeing me so tense

              G
No self-confidence

But you see

[Refrão 4]

                    C   Am
The winner takes it all
                    Dm  G
The winner takes it all
