[Intro] G  Bm  Em  Am  D7

[Primera Parte]

               G
I don't wanna talk
                        Bm
About the things we've gone through
                     Am
Though it's hurting me
               D7
Now it's history

                    G
I've played all my cards
                        Bm
And that's what you've done too
                 Am
Nothing more to say
                 D7
No more ace to play

[Estribillo 1]

                    G   B7
The winner takes it all
                     Em    E
The loser's standing small
   Am
Beside the victory
                D7
That's her destiny

[Segunda Parte]

                G
I was in your arms
               B7
Thinking I belonged there
                   Am
I figured it made sense
               D7
Building me a fence
               G
Building me a home
                   Bm
Thinking I'd be strong there
             Am
But I was a fool
                D7
Playing by the rules

[Estribillo 2]

                   G      B7
The gods may throw a dice
                       Em   E
Their minds as cold as ice
            Am
And someone way down here
                D7
Loses someone dear

                     G  B7
The winner takes it all
                  Em  E
The loser has to fall
                 Am
It's simple and it's plain
           D7
Why should I complain

[Tercera Parte]

                       G
But tell me, does she kiss
                Bm
Like I used to kiss you?
                  Am
Does it feel the same
                D7
When she calls your name?
                  B7
Somewhere deep inside
                 Bm
You must know I miss you
         Am
But what can I say?
            D7
Rules must be obeyed

[Refrão 3]

                   G   B7
The judges will decide
                 Em    E
The likes of me abide
           Am
Spectators of the show
                D7
Always staying low

                 G    B7
The game is on again
               Em    E
A lover or a friend
                   Am
A big thing or a small
                     D7
The winner takes it all

[Puente]

               G
I don't wanna talk
                      Bm
If it makes you feel sad
             Am
And I understand
                         D7
You've come to shake my hand
        G
I apologize
                 Bm
If it makes you feel bad
              Am
Seeing me so tense
              D7
No self-confidence

But you see

[Refrão 4]

                    G   B7
The winner takes it all
                    G   B7
The winner takes it all
