             G#           C#
The news is out all over town
                  G#              D#7
That you've been seen a runnin' 'round.
            G#                   C#
I know that I should leave, but then,
             G# D#7          G#
I just can't go;   you win again.
               C#               G#
This heart of mine could never see
                        D#7
What ev'rybody knew but me.
               G#               C#
Just trusting you was my great sin.
           G#  D#7          G#
What can I do?    You win again.

I'm sorry for your victim now,
'Cause soon his head like mine will bow.
He'll give his heart, but all in vain
And someday say, you win a-gain.
You have no heart, you have no shame.
You take true love and give the blame.
I guess that I should not com-plain.
I love you still, you win a-gain.
