Victim Of The Game
Recorded by Garth Brooks
Written by Mark D. Sanders and Garth Brooks

G
Well it took a little time 
      C
But I guess you finally learned
     G        D7      Em
That promises get broken 
    A7             D7
And bridges do get burned

            G                      B7
You've been siftin' through the ashes 
                      C
Just tryin' to find a flame
        D7    G
Holding on to nothin' 
         D7            G   D7
You're a victim of the game

         G
You were standin' way too close 
   C
To see it fall apart
           G          D7       Em
There were things you couldn't hear 
               A7                  D7
Cause you were listenin' with your heart

          G                 B7
You can't say I didn't warn you 
                           C
Now there's no one else to blame
               D7       G
There's no one quite as blind 
     D7            G
As a victim of the game

             C      F       C
And it don't matter who you are 
          G    F       E7   Am
It treats everyone the same
C                D7
All you need's a heart 
        C      D7     G   D7
To be a victim of the game

              G
You know it's really gettin' to ya 
         C
When you take to tellin' lies
        G      D7        Em
You can try to fool your friends 
              A7              D7
But you can't look 'em in the eye

            G
There ain't no standing tall 
       B7            C
In the shadow of the shame
          D7   G
When everybody knows 
              D7            G
That you're a victim of the game

             C      F       C
And it don't matter who you are 
          G    F       E7   Am
It treats everyone the same
C                D7
All you need's a heart 
        C      D7     G   D7
To be a victim of the game

                              B7
Oh Lord when I look into your eyes 
                      C
I can really feel the flame
         D7     G
Starrin' in the mirror 
     D7            G
At a victim of the game
