Written by Joey Dosik, from the Game Winner EP, released 2016.
This version is as close to the recording as I could get it. Below are
the voicings I used for some of the chords that I didn t think were obvious:
C7b9 - X3232X
Bbmaj7 - 6X776X
Ebsus4 - X6889X
[Intro]
x2
[Verse 1]
Couldn t possibly blame me
More than I blame myself
I always thought I would shoot us out
Of any mess we got in
And I should have kept my mouth shut
I could have been the grown-up
Surprised to see you had cut your hair
And then I really lost all of my composure out there
[Chorus]
Cause my competitive streak runs deep
32, 33, baby, Magic and Kareem
I shouldn t have made a scene
But it s not easy seeing you playing for another team
No no no
[Verse 2]
When I was winnin without you I could leave you alone
Wouldn t rub it in your face
Now that I m down when I see you around
Thinkin how I can get you back (How can I get ya back?)
Thinkin maybe my best days are behind me
Maybe winning and losing blinds me
A Monday morning quarterback
Said how d you lose the only thing you had left?
[Chorus]
Cause my competitive streak runs deep
32, 33, baby, Magic and Kareem
I shouldn t have made a scene
But it s not easy seeing you playing for another team no no no
(Chromatic bass climb from E to B)
And what s the point of winning for myself if I have to lose to you?
(No no no no no no no)
[Bridge]
I still replay certain games in my head
I can remember every play
The time when we won it all
And when we gave it all away
[Chorus]
Cause my competitive streak runs deep
See my competitive streak runs deep
But what s the point of winning for myself if I have to lose to you? See my competitive streak...
Baby, what s the point of winning for myself if I have to lose to you?
(Chromatic bass climb from E to B)
And what s the point of winning for myself if I have to lose to you?
(Chromatic bass climb from E to B)
What s the point of winning for myself if I have to lose to you?
