 For you I was a flame; love is a losing game.

 One I wish I never played; oh what a mess we made. 
            Dm7         Fm         Cmaj7 
And now the final frame; love is a losing game.

 Played out by the band; love is a losing hand.

 Self professed, profound; 'till the chips were down.

 Though I'm rather blind; love is a fate resigned.

 Over futile odds, and laughed at by the gods.

And now the final frame; love is a losing game.
