The Race Is On

G                                 
I feel tears wellin' up from deep 
            C
inside like my heart's
         G
goin' to break.
G                                 
And a stab of loneliness sharp and
              D
 painful that I may never shake.
G                                 
You might say that I was taking it
                C
 hard since you gave me the
          G
final goodbye.
G                                 
But don't you wager that I'll hide
                      D
 my sorrow when I may break
               G
right down and cry.

CHORUS:
G
Now the race is on and here comes 
Pride up the backstretch,
C                             G
Heartaches are going to the inside.
G                          D
My Tears are holding back, they're 
tryin' not to fall.

G                                 
My Heart's out of the running, 
         C
True Love's scratched
             G
for Anothers Sake.
G
The race is on and it looks like 
Heartaches..and the
D            G
winner loses all.

#2.
G
One day I ventured in love, never 
once suspectin' what
    C                  G
the final result would be.
G
How I lived in fear of wakin' up 
each morning,
    D
and findin' that you're gone from 
me.
        G
There's achin' and pain in my heart 
for the name of
    C                     G
the one that I'll never replace.
G                                 
Somebody new came up to win her 
         D             G
and I came out in second place.

CHORUS:
G
Now the race is on and here comes 
Pride up the backstretch,
C                             G
Heartaches are going to the inside.
G                          D
My Tears are holding back, they're 
tryin' not to fall.
G                                 
My Heart's out of the running, 
         C
True Love's scratched
             G
for Anothers Sake.
