  THE RACE IS ON

  Recorded by George Jones

  Written by Don Rollins

  

  [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.
