I feel tears welling up from down deep inside [C] like my heart's got a [G] big break
And it's never lonely, it's sharp and [A] painful that I may never [D] shake
[G] You might think that I'm taking it [C] hard since you broke me off with a call
[G] You might wiggle out all that sorrow [D] when I muddle around [G] down and bow
Now the rest of the year comes right up [C] the backstretch
Heartaches are going to the [G] inside
My tears are [A] holding back, trying not [D] to fall
[G] My heart's out on the running, [C] feel a scratch for [G] another day
The race is on and it looks like heartache
[D] Winner loses [G] all

One day I ventured in love, never once [C] suspecting what the final [G] results would be
Darling, I feel waking up this morning [A] and finding that you're gone [D] from me
It [G] was aching pain in my heart for the name of the [C] ones that I hated to face
[G] Somebody else came out to win her, and I came out in second place
