Chords

[Verse 1] N.C. I feel tears wellin' up cold deep inside
     A                       E
Like my heart's sprung a big break

      E                  E
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

     F#         B
More than I can take

     E                       E
You might have thought I was takin' it hard

        A                  E
When you broke it off with a call

              A                      E
But don't you wager I'm gon' hide my sorrow

           B                    E
Just might break right down and bawl
[Chorus]
N.C.             E                 E
Now, the race is on and here comes Pride up the backstretch

A              E
Heartaches are cuttin' through my inside

E
My Tears are holdin' back

F#            B
Tryin' not to fall

E                     E
My Heart's out of the runnin'

          A                       E
True Love scratched for another's sake

                A                      E
Now the race is on and it lookin' like Heartache

        B                   E
And the winner gon' lose it all.
[Solo] E A E E F# B E A E A E B E [Verse 2] N.C. One day I wagered in love, never once suspectin'
         A                  E
What the final result would be

      E                       E
And I lived in fear of wakin' up each morning

    F#                            B
And findin' that you're gone from me

        E
There's ache and pain in my heart

                  A                   E
For today was the one that I hated to face

         A              E
Somebody new come up to win her

      B                  E
And I ended up in second place
[Chorus]
N.C.            E
Now the race is on and here comes Pride up the backstretch

A          E
Heartaches cuttin' through my inside

E
My Tears are holdin' back

        F#            B
They're tryin' not to fall

E
My Heart's out of the runnin'

            A                       E
True Love's scratched for another's sake

                A                      E
Now The race is on and it lookin' like Heartache

        B                   E
And the winner gon' lose it all.
[Outro] E A B E
