Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 4 half steps down [ -4 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 4 to stay in the same key

Db              Gb
I don t wanna talk,
                       Db
About the things we ve gone through
                   Abm
Though its hurting me,
             Db
Now its history
                   Gb
I ve played all my cards
                       Db
And that s what you ve done too
                Abm
Nothing more to say,
               Db
No more ace to play


                    Gb
The winner takes it all;
                   Ebm
The loser standing small
                Abm
Beside the victory;
                Db
That s her destiny


              Gb
I was in your arms,
             Db
Thinking I belonged there
                  Abm
I figured it made sense;
              Db
Building me a fence
              Gb
Building me a home,
                Db
Thinking I d be strong there
            Abm
But I was a fool;
               Db
Playing by the rules


                     Gb
The gods may throw a dice,
                       Ebm
Their minds as cold as ice
                     Abm
And someone way down here;
              Db
Loses someone dear
                    Gb
The winner takes it all;
                 Ebm
The loser has to fall
                    Abm
It's simple and its plain;
                Db
Why should I complain?


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


                  Gb
The judges will decide,
                 Ebm
The likes of me abide
                  Abm
Spectators of the show,
               Db
Always staying low


                Gb
The game is on again,
             Ebm
a lover or a friend
                 Abm
a big thing or a small;
                    Db
The winner takes it all


              Gb
I don t wanna talk,
                Db
If it makes you feel sad
           Abm
And I understand;
                        Db
You ve come to shake my hand
       Gb
I apologize,
                Db
If it makes you feel bad
             Abm
Seeing me so tense;
             Db
No self confidence

        

But you see,
                    Gb   Ebm Abm Db
The winner takes it all
                    Gb   Ebm Abm Db
The winner takes it all
