The Winner Takes It All (Acoustic).kar

I don't wanna talk
about things we've gone through;

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.

The winner takes it all,
the loser standing small

beside the victory,
that's her destiny.

I was in your arms
thinkin' I belonged there.

I figured it made sense,
building me a fence,

building me a home,
thinkin' I'd be strong there;

but I was a fool,
playin' by the rules.

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?

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.

The judges will decide,
the likes of me abide,

spectators of the show
always stayin' low.

The game is on again;
a lover or a friend,

a big thing or a small,
the winner takes it all.

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.

The winner takes it all.
The winner takes it all.

So the winner takes it all,
and the loser has to fall.

Throw a dice, cold as ice,
way down here, someone dear.
