G
If maybe you'd move over,
                                C
Gave someone else a chance to try their luck;
     G
In-stead, you run up closer,
                                   C           A
Try'n to grab a page before they close the book.

Chorus:
D      F7
It was over 'fore it started,
D7
Seemed so long when we began,
A#        C               F
Hope you take it like a friend.
F7
It's a shame to see you cryin',
D7
Wouldn't think to way back when,
A#               C             F7
Looks like L'll never hear the end.

Thought you had the honor
Took special pride in all your well laid plans
Forgot about the others
We moved out the ward the light showing empty hands

Chorus

Ah, put the boot down! Mm-hm!

Love to be the winner
Gather up your chips in time to cash them in
We're all looking thinner
Playing cards too close for either one to win

Chorus

Woa oh oh oh
It's a shame to see you crying
Wouldn't think to way back when
Hope you take it like a friend
Yeah eah eah eah...
