(Intro) D D Bm Em A G A D 

D 
One day I was on the ground 

When I needed a hand 

Then it couldn't be found 
      D 
I was so far down that I couldn't get up 
             G 
You know and one day I was one of life's losers 
D 
Even my friends were my accusers 
A 
In my head I lost before I begun 
D 
I had a dream but it turned to dust 

And what I thought was love 

That must have been lust 
      D 
I was living in style 

When the walls fell in 
           G 
And when I played my hand 

I looked like a joker 
D 
Turn around fate must have woke her 
      A                                     G    A  D 
Cause lady luck she was waiting outside the door 

 
 D             Bm             D             Bm 
   I'm winning    I'm winning   I'm winning    I'm winning 
Em                   A                       G    A  D 
   I'm winning and I don't intend on losing again 

D 
Too bad it belonged to me 

It was the wrong time and not meant to be 
          D 
It took a long time and I'm new born now 
      G 
I can see the day that I bleed for 
D 
If it's agreed that there's a need 
A                           G     A  D 
To play the game and to win again 

 

 D             Bm             D             Bm 
   I'm winning    I'm winning   I'm winning    I'm winning 
Em                     A                     G    A  D  D  D 
   I'm winning and I don't intend on losing again 

D 
I had a dream but it turned to dust 

And what I thought was love 

That must have been lust 
      D 
I was living in style 

When the walls fell in 
           G 
And when I played my hand 

I looked like a joker 
D 
Turn around fate must have woke her 
       A                                    G    A  D 
Cause lady luck she was waiting outside the door 



 D             Bm              D             Bm 
   I'm winning     I'm winning   I'm winning    I'm winning 
Em                   A                       G    A  D 
   I'm winning and I don't intend on losing again
