The Race Is On Sözleri

[NC] I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside

Like my [D] heart's sprung a big [A] break

And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

[E] That I may never shake

You might [A] say that I was taking it hard

Oh, she [D] wrote me off with a [A] call

But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow

When I may [E] break right down and [A] bawl?

[NC] Well, the race is [A] on and here comes Pride up the backstretch

[D] Heartaches are going to the in-[A] side

My Tears are holding back

They're tryin' [E] not to fall

[A] My Heart's out of the running

True Love's [D] scratched for another's [A] sake

The race is on and it looks like Heartaches

And the [E] winner loses [A] all.

One day I ventured in love, never once suspectin'

What the final result would be

How I lived in fear of waking up each morning

And thinkin' that you're gone from me

There's ache and pain in my heart

For today was the one that I hated to face

Somebody new came up to win her

I came out in second place.
