Carlos Santana - Winning

winning
( intro ) D D Bm Em A G A D

D
one day i was on the ground

when i needed a hand

then it couldn’t be found
D
i was so far down that i couldn’t get up
G
you know and one day i was one of life’s losers
D
even my friends were my accusers
A
in my head i lost before i begun
D
i had a dream but it turned to dust

and what i thought was love

that must have been lust
D
i was living in style

when the walls fell in
G
and when i played my hand

i looked like a joker
D
turn around fate must have woke her
A G A D
cause lady luck she was waiting outside the door

( chorus )
D Bm D Bm
i’m winning i’m winning i’m winning i’m winning
Em A G A D
i’m winning and i don’t intend on losing again

D
too bad it belonged to me

it was the wrong time and not meant to be
D
it took a long time and i’m new born now
G
i can see the day that i bleed for
D
if it’s agreed that there’s a need
A G A D
to play the game and to win again

( chorus )

D Bm D Bm
i’m winning i’m winning i’m winning i’m winning
Em A G A D D D

D
i had a dream but it turned to dust

and what i thought was love

that must have been lust
D
i was living in style

when the walls fell in
G
and when i played my hand

i looked like a joker
