The Race is On -Don Rollins

Artist: George JonesComposer: Don RollinsGoChords.com

G

I feel tears welling up from down deep inside,

G
C

Like my heart's got a big break

Em
A7
D7

And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful that I may never shake.

G

G7

You might think that I'm taking it hard since you wrote me off with a call,

G
D7

You might wager that I'll hide in sorrow and I might lay right down and bawl.

G

Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,

G
C
D7
A7

Heartaches a goin' to the inside, my tears are holding back, tryin' not to fall.

G
G
C

My heart's out of the running, true love scratched for another's sake,

G
G
D7

The race is on and it looks like heartaches, and the winner loses all.

G

One day I ventured in love never once suspecting

G
C

What the final result would be.

Em

Now I live in fear of waking up each morning,

D7
A7

And finding that you're gone from me.

G
G
C
G7

There's an aching pain in my heart for the name of the one that I hated to face,

G
D7

Someone else came out to win her, and I came out in second place.

G

Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,

G
C
D7
A7

Heartaches a goin' to the inside, my tears are holding back, tryin' not to fall.

G

C

My heart's out of the running, true love scratched for another's sake,

G

D7

The race is on and it looks like heartaches, and the winner loses all.
