G        Em        Cmaj7        Am

[Verse 1]
G        G              Cmaj7     Am
  Once I loved a woman,   once we shared a name,
G         Em                   Cmaj7                      Am
  but the tide pulled us under   and now we can't get up again.
E                                         D
  Well, I wish someone had told me you're going to sink before you swim,
         Em*    D*        C*             Am
you make take a couple of rounds but the house always [Interlude] wins.

[Verse 2]
G               G                       Cmaj7      Am
  I thought our love would last forever   we would raise a family
G               Em                       Cmaj7                Am
  but the cards   were dealt against us,   it was never meant to be.
E                                     D
  When love walks out and leaves you, loneliness steps in;
         Em*    D*        C*             Am
you make take a couple of rounds but the house always [Interlude] wins.

[Verse 3]
G            G                 Cmaj7   Am
  When I sat down at the table I was a younger man,
G             Em                   Cmaj7              Am
  I thought I had the whole world,   wrapped up in my hands.
E                                              D
  I wished someone had told me you're going to pay for all of your sins.
        Em*    D*        C
You can take a couple of rounds,
        Em*    D*        C
you can take a couple of rounds,
        Em*    D*        C
you may take a couple of rounds,
        Am*        N.C.          N.C.
but the house, the house, always wins.
