C#m            F#m                A       G#m
I keep sitting down to write this song
    C#m          F#m         A              G#m
But every time I do, all the words come out wrong
C#m           F#m            A        G#m       B        C#m
Maybe I don't know where to start, so you say, "From the heart"
      F#m  G#m A         A7
And I say, "I would if I had one"


[Chorus]
F#m            G#m  A                         B   C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m                                                    F#m
And again, and again, and again, and again, and again? Whoa
F#m            G#m  A                         B   C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m
And again, and again, and again, and again?


[Verse 2]
C#m          F#m            A              G#m
I am full of bitterness and lies, and they say
    C#m             F#m               A      G#m
the soul is sitting right behind your eyes
         C#m             F#m          A       G#m
And I'll reckon they are probably all right
                   C#m  F#m                          A           G#m
They said it would be         right where they would be if I had one


[Chorus]
F#m            G#m  A                         B   C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m                                                      F#m
And again, and again, and again, and again, and again? Whoa
F#m            G#m  A                         B   C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m
And again, and again, and again, and again?


[Bridge]
A G#m F#m   C#m
A                                F#m
Love is just a healing flame but it still hurts you just the same
    C#m                         F#m
And I don't want to play it all again


[Chorus]
F#m            G#m  A                         B   C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m                                                     F#m
And again, and again, and again, and again, and again? Whoa
A                 C#m
             (And I don't want to play it all again)
F#m                 A                             C#m
If love is a losing game, then why do we play it again
C#m
And again, and again, and again, and again?
