The Race is On — Georgia Satellites

Nc

Like my [d] hearts sprung a big [a] break

And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

E

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

Oh, she [d] wrote me off with a [a] call

But dont you wager that Ill hide the sorrow

When I may [e] break right down and [a] bawl?

Nc

D

My tears are holding back

Theyre tryin [e] not to fall

A

True loves [d] scratched for anothers [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 youre gone from me

Theres 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.
