Chords
The Race Is On
by George Jones written by Don Rollins
G
I feel tears welling up cold and deep inside
C G
Like my heart's sprung a big break
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
A7 D7
That I may never shake
G
You might say that I was taking it hard
C G
Oh she wrote me off with a call
But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
D7 G
When I may break right down and bawl
Well the race is on and here comes Pride up the backstretch
C G
Heartaches are going to the inside
My Tears are holding back
A7 D7
They're trying not to fall
G
My Heart's out of the running
C G
True Love's scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like Heartaches
D7 G
And the winner loses all
One day I ventured in love never once suspecting
C G
What the final result would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
A7 D7
And thinking that you're gone from me
G
There's ache and pain in my heart
C G
For today was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
D7 G
I came out in second place
Repeat # 3 & 4
