C                                  Dm
Most of my life I've almost been a winner
     F                              C
I've come so close but never really won
     C              C7          F
Just when I thought I’d finally made it
  G                                C
I find myself back where I started from


Chorus:
  Em              Dm            F
I hate to say I'm giving up but I believe
G                            C
Losin's just become a way of life for me
Em                           F  
Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all
        Dm          G               C
But I'm always on a mountain when I fall


Then you came along and had me, had me believin'
For once in my life my luck had finally changed
And now you say you're gonna leave me
Seems everything I do winds up the same

Chorus

Em                           F  
Losin' wouldn't be so bad at all
        Dm          G               C
But I'm always on a mountain when I fall
