The Winner Takes It All chords
Abba *

Capo IV

A augmentedA       D MajorD
I don't wanna talk,
            A augmentedA
About the things we've gone through
          E minorEm
Though its hurting me,
       A augmentedA
Now its history
          D MajorD
I've played all my cards
            A augmentedA
And that's what you've done too
        E minorEm
Nothing more to say,
        A augmentedA
No more ace to play

          D MajorD
The winner takes it all;
          B minorBm
The loser standing small
        E minorEm
Beside the victory;
        A augmentedA
That's her destiny

       D MajorD
I was in your arms,
       A augmentedA
Thinking I belonged there
         E minorEm
I figured it made sense;
       A augmentedA
Building me a fence
       D MajorD
Building me a home,
        A augmentedA
Thinking I'd be strong there
      E minorEm
But I was a fool;
        A augmentedA
Playing by the rules

           D MajorD
The gods may throw a dice,
            B minorBm
Their minds as cold as ice
           E minorEm
And someone way down here;
       A augmentedA
Loses someone dear
          D MajorD
The winner takes it all;
         B minorBm
The loser has to fall
          E minorEm
It's simple and its plain;
        A augmentedA
Why should I complain?

           D MajorD
But tell me does she kiss,
        A augmentedA
Like I used to kiss you?
         E minorEm
Does it feel the same;
          A augmentedA
When she calls your name?
         D MajorD
Somewhere deep inside,
        A augmentedA
You must know I miss you
        E minorEm
But what can I say;
        A augmentedA
Rules must be obeyed

         D MajorD
The judges will decide,
         B minorBm
The likes of me abide
         E minorEm
Spectators of the show,
        A augmentedA
Always staying low

        D MajorD
The game is on again,
       B minorBm
A augmentedA lover or a friend
         E minorEm
A augmentedA big thing or a small;
          A augmentedA
The winner takes it all

       D MajorD
I don't wanna talk,
        A augmentedA
If it makes you feel sad
      E minorEm
And I understand;
            A augmentedA
You've come to shake my hand
    D MajorD
I apologize,
        A augmentedA
If it makes you feel bad
       E minorEm
Seeing me so tense;
       A augmentedA
No self-confidence

But you see,
          D MajorD  B minorBm E minorEm A augmentedA
The winner takes it all
          D MajorD  B minorBm E minorEm A augmentedA
The winner takes it all

D MajorD B minorBm E minorEm A augmentedA 3x
