Always The Winner
Capo 1
(verse 1)
G D C G C G
When you close your eyes there’s a frightened pride that lives for you
Am D Am C D C D
That your mothers life and your father’s eyes can’t hide.
G D C G C G
You had no choice didn’t ask the dice to fall for you
Am D Am C D C D
Still your courage comes like thunder through the skies
(Chorus 1)
D G D C D G D C D
You’re always the winner, the victor and the giver
G D Am C G D
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old
(verse 2)
G D C G CG
So you carry time down the tortured line where mysteries show
Am D Am C D C D
Well hidden from lifes learned and life’s wise
G D C G C G
Man’s useless ways and worthless conversations
Am D Am C D C
Lie well exposed and humbled in your smile
(Chorus 2)
D G D C D G D C D
You’re always the winner, the victor and the giver

Somewhere through that winter, you’ll never be alone
D G D C D G D C D
For evermore the winner, the taker and the giver
G D Am C G D
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old.
(Bridge)
Am G
Still you run out in the morning, with the boys and girls
C G
A miracle of innocence on a head of curls
Am G
We’ll search every reason wherever we roam
Am D
To find a place for these broken hearts and bones
C G Am G
We’ll keep a fire on the hillside, after the summer’s gone
Am C G D
And we’ll wait her for the war-wounded to come home.
(Chorus 3)
D G D C D G D C D
You’re always the winner, the victor and the giver
G D Am C D C
Somewhere through that winter, you’ll never be alone
D G D C D G D C D
For evermore the winner, the taker and the giver
G D Am C G
Somewhere through that winter, you will not grow old.
