N.C.                                                 D                   A
I FEEL TEARS WELLIN UP COLD AND DEEP INSIDE, LIKE MY HEARTS SPRUNG A BIG BREAK
                                            E
AND A STAB OF LONELINESS SHARP AND PAINFUL, THAT I MAY NEVER SHAKE
          A                                      D                   A
YOU MIGHT SAY THAT I WAS TAKING IT HARD, OH, SHE WROTE ME OFF WITH A CALL
                                                E                               A
BUT DON'T YOU WAGGER THAT I'LL HIDE THE SORROW, WHEN I MAY BREAK RIGHT DOWN AND BAWL
N.C.              A                                           D                              A
WELL, THE RACE IS ON AND HERE COMES PRIDE UP THE BACKSTRETCH, HEARTACHES ARE GOING TO THE INSIDE
                                         E
MY TEARS ARE HOLDING BACK, THEY'RE TRYIN NOT TO FALL
A                                         D                      A
MY HEARTS OUT OF THE RUNNING, TRUE LOVE'S SCRATCHED FOR ANOTHERS SAKE
                                                     E            A
THE RACE IS ON AND IT LOOKS LIKE HEARTACHES, AND THE WINNER LOSES ALL
ONE DAY I VENTURED IN LOVE, NEVER ONCE SUSPECTIN, WHAT THE FINAL RESULT WOULD BE
HOW I LIVED IN FEAR WAKING UP EACH MORNING, AND THINKING YOU WERE 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
N.C.              A                                           D                              A

                                         E
MY TEARS ARE HOLDING BACK, THEY'RE TRYIN NOT TO FALL
A                                         D                      A
MY HEARTS OUT OF THE RUNNING, TRUE LOVE'S SCRATCHED FOR ANOTHERS SAKE
