G#
The hulk of a man with a beer in is hand
D#
Looked like a drunk old fool
And I knew if I hit him right
G#
Why I could knock him off-a that stool
But ever'body they said Watch out,
C#
Hey, that's Tiger Man McCool
D#
He's had a whole lot of fights
G#
And he's always come out a winner
D# G#
Yea!, he's a winner.
G#
But I'd had myself about five too many
D#
And I walked up tall and proud
I faced his back and I faced the fact
G#
That he had never stooped or bowed
I said, Tiger Man, you're a pussycat
C#
And a hush fell on the crowd
D#
I said let's you and me go outside and see
G#
Who's a winner.
G#
Well, he gripped the bar with one big hairy hand
D#
And he braced against the wall
He slowly looked up from his beer
G#
My God, that man was tall
He said boy, I see you're a scrapper
C#
So just before you fall
D#
I'm gonna tell you just a little
G#
'Bout what it means to be a winner.
G#
He said Now you see these bright white smiling teeth
D#
You know they ain't my own
Mine rolled away like chiclets
G#
Down the street in San Antone
But I left that person, cursin'
C#
Nursin' seven broken bones
D#
And he, uh, only broke, uh, three of mine
G#
That makes me the winner.
G#
He said Now behind this grin, I got steel pins
D#
That holds my jaw in place
F trophy of my most successful
G#
Motorcycle race
And each morning when I wake and touch
C#
This scar across my face
D#
It reminds me of all I got
G#
by being a winner.
G#
Now this broken back was a dying act
D#
Of a handsome Harry Clay
That sticky Cincinnati night
G#
I stole his wife away
But that woman she gets uglier
C#
And she gets meaner every day
D#
But I got her, boy
G#
that's what makes me a winner
Change to ...[D]
A#
He said You gotta speak loud when you challenge me son
F
'Cause it's hard for me to hear
With this twisted neck and these migrane pains
A#
And this big old cauliflower ear
And if it wasn't for this glass eye of mine
D#
Why, I'd shed a happy tear
F
To think of all you're gonna get
A#
By being a winner.
A#
I got ar-th-rit-ic elbows, son
F
I got dislocated knees
From pickin' fights with thunderstorms
A#
And chargin' into trees
And my nose's been broke so often
D#
I might lose it if I sneeze
F
And son, you say you
A#
still wanna be a winner.
A#
Now you remind me a lot of my younger days
F
With your knuckles a-clenchin' white
But boy, I'm gonna sit right here
A#
And sip this beer all night
And if there's somethin' that you gotta gain or prove
D#
by winnin' some silly fight
F
Well, OK, I quit, I lose
A#
You're the winner.
A#
Oh, I stumbled from that barroom
F
Not so tall and not so proud
And behind me I still hear
A#
the hoots and laughter of the crowd
But my eyes still see and my nose still works
D#
And my teeth are still in my mouth
F
And you know, I guess that
A#
Makes me the winner.
