BORN TO LOSE, I've lived my life in vain;___
Ev-'ry dream  has on-ly brought me pain;____
All my life I've al-ways been so blue;____

BORN TO LOSE  and now I'm los-in' you.____
BORN TO LOSE, it seems so hard   to  bear;____
How I long  to al-ways have you near;___
You've grown tired  and now you say we're through;__
BORN TO LOSE,  and now I'm los-in' you.______

BORN TO LOSE,  my ev-'ry hope is gone;____
It's so hard   to face that emp-ty dawn;____
You were all   the hap-pi-ness I knew;______
BORN TO LOSE and now I'm los-in' you.______

There's no use  to dream of hap-pi-ness;____
All I see   is on-ly lone-li-ness;___
All my life I've al-ways been so blue;____
BORN TO LOSE and now I'm los-in' you.______
