THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL!    ABBA


KEY OF D FLAT/ C SHARP


4   -4   5 -5b  -2
I don't wan-na talk

-2 -2     4     -4   -4     4
A-bout things we've gone through

   4    -3    3   2   4
Though it's hurt-ing me

 4   -3   -2  2 -3
Now it's his-to-ry

 4     -4    5  -5b -2
I've played all my cards

 3    -3     4    -4    -4   4
And that's what you've done too

 4   -3b  -3   3  -3
Noth-ing more to say

 4  -3b  -3  3  -3
No more ace to play


(CHORUS)

 4   4   -6   -6  -6b 
The win-ner takes it all

-3b -3b -5   -5  -5b  -5b
The los-er stand-ing small

-4  -4   7   7  -6 -6
Be-side the vic-to-ry

  -6   -6b  -5 -6b -6
That's her  des-ti-ny



VERDSE 2, 3 & 4 play same as one

I was in your arms
Think-ing I be-longed there
I figured it made sense
Build-ing me a fence
Build-ing me a home
Think-ing I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Play-ing by the rules
The gods may throw the dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And some-one way down here
Loses some-one dear



(CHORUS)

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you? 
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name? 
Some-where deep in-side
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
The jud-ges will de-cide
The likes of me a-bide
Spec-ta-tors of the show
Al-ways stay-ing low
The game is on a-gain
A lov-er or a friend
A big thing or a small

(CHORUS)

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...

ENJOY!!!
