(verse 1)
I'm st[Am]anding here [F]freezing in a ph[G]one booth, b[C]ab[-]y[G/B]
In the [Am]middle of [G]god knows wh[F]ere,
I've got o[Am]ne quarter l[F]eft, your mach[G]ine picks [C]up[-],[G/B]
But b[Am]aby I [G]know you're th[F]ere,
And I [Dm7]just start [Dm7]crying 'cause it [C/G]makes no [G]sense,
To [Dm7]waste these [Dm7]words and twen[C/G]ty five [G]cents on a l[Am]osing g[F]ame,[G]
[C]Ba[G/B]by, y[Am]ou win ag[F]ain[G] [-] [C]
(verse 2)
I've been turning it over and over again
Like a stone I'm waiting to wish on
I've been holding my breath, just wondering when
You'll make some sort of decision
To let me in or to let me go
I always lose if I never know where I fit in
Baby, you win again
(chorus)
[Bb]I can't be right if I'm [Dm7]always [G]wrong,
I [C]can't stand [F]up if I'm a[Am]lways [Gsus]kneelin[G]g,
[Bb]At your altar or[Dm7] at your[G] throne,
[C]You could s[F]how just a [Dm7]little f[G]eeling [Am]for who[F] I am[G],
[C]Ba[G/B]by, y[Am]ou win ag[F]ain[G],[-] [C]
(lead - Am - F - G - C - G/B - Am - F - G - C) 4x's
(verse 3)
Last night I dreamed we were standing here
On the corner of Love and Heartache
You jumped into your car, you found first gear
And baby, I felt the earth shake
And I woke up trembling with my heart in my throat
'Cause there's never a look, a word, or a note at the bitter end
Baby, you win again
(chorus)
[Bb]I can't be right if I'm [Dm7]always [G]wrong,
I [C]can't stand [F]up if I'm a[Am]lways [Gsus]kneelin[G]g,
[Bb]At your altar or[Dm7] at your[G] throne,
[C]You could s[F]how just a [Dm7]little f[G]eeling [Am]for who[F] I am[G],
[C]Ba[G/B]by, y[Am]ou win ag[F]ain[G],[-] [C]
(Outro - Am - F - G - C - (ending with F)
