[N] [Gm] I [G] feel tears welling up from down deep inside [C] like my heart's got a big [G] break
And it's never low and it's sharp and painful and I may never shake
You might think that I'm taking it hard [C] since you broke me off with a [G] call
You might wiggle and I'll hide in sorrow and I might lay right down and bawl
Now the race is on and here comes pride of the [C] backstretch
Heartache's going to the [G] inside, my tears are holding back, [A] trying [D] not to fall
[G] My heart's out of the running, few love's scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartache, the winner loses all

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