E               B7             E7                A
I had won all I could win, there was no place I hadn't been
       E            B7           E   B7
But my heart was so needy and so poor
        E                B7             E7             A
Then, I heard Him gently say, "Lose it all and find my way."
      E               B7               E   A
So, I gave it up, and found it all and more


[Chorus]
E B7      E        A   B7      F#m7 B7                   E
I lost it all, to find everything, I died a pauper, to become a king
       E        B     E7        A               F#7
When I learned how to lose, I found out how to win
       B7       F#m7 B7   E          C7
Oh, I lost it all to find everything


[Verse 2]
      F          C              F          Bb
I was frantic to survive, I was racing to arrive
      F              C7             F    C7
And I walked on, any standing in my way
         F                     C7      F7            Bb
Then, I watched my schemes all die and realized that I
      F                          C7        F   Bb
Could find new life, because the old had died that day


[Chorus]
F  C7     F            C7   Gm    C7                     F
I lost it all, to find everything, I died a pauper, to become a king
C7     F     C7       F7        Bb             G7
When I learned how to lose, I found out how to win
        C7      Gm7   C7  F
Oh, I lost it all to find everything
