I'm a Loser.   (Lennon/McCartney)
      Am7            D7  /        Am7          F       D7
I'm a loser,   I'm a loser,
And I'm not what I appear to be.
G          Dm          F           G                 Dm            F          G
Of all the love I have won or have lost
There is one love I should never have crossed.
          Dm        F          G
She was a girl in a million my friend,
              Dm              F          G
I should have known she would win in the end.
Chorus:
     Am7 D7        Am7                D7         G  Em          Am7          F       D7   
I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me
I'm a loser, and I'm not what I appear to be.
 
Although I laugh and I act like a clown Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown.
My tears are falling like rain from the sky Is it for her or myself that I cry
Chorus.
What have I done to deserve such a fate I realise I have left it too late.
And so it's true pride comes before a fall I'm telling you so that you don't lose all.
 
Chorus.
