George Jones – The Race Is On chords
Chords:
[NC] I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep insideLike my [D] heart's sprung a big [A] breakAnd a stab of loneliness sharp and painful[E] That I may never shake You might [A] say that I was taking it hardOh, she [D] wrote me off with a [A] callBut don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrowWhen 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] sideMy Tears are holding backThey're tryin' [E] not to fall [A] My Heart's out of the runningTrue Love's [D] scratched for another's [A] sakeThe race is on and it looks like HeartachesAnd 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.
