THE RACE IS ON As recorded by Michael Shannon (From the 2022 ORIGINAL SERIES SOUNDTRACK "GEORGE & TAMMY") [Verse 1] N.C. I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep inside

     D
Like my heart's sprung a big break

D
And the stab of loneliness, sharp and painful

     B           E
That I may never shake

A
You might say that I was taking it hard

          D                   A
Since you wrote me off with a call

A
But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow

           E                    A
When I may break right down and bawl

[Chorus] N.C. Now the race is on N.C. And here comes pride up the back stretch

D                          A
Heartache's a-going to the inside

A
My tears are holding back

B                     E
They're trying not to fall

A
My heart's out of the running

            D
True love's scratched for another's sake

A
The race is on, and it looks like heartache's

        E            A
And the winner loses all

[Guitar Solo] N.C. A D A B E A D A E A [Verse 2] N.C. One day I had ventured in love, never once suspecting

         D                   A
What the final results would be

A
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning

    B                            E
And finding that you'd gone from me

        A
There's aching and pain in my heart

                    D                   A
For the day was the one that I hated to face

A
Somebody new came up to win her

      E                  A
And I came out in second place

[Chorus] N.C. Now the race is on N.C. And here comes pride up the back stretch

D                          A
Heartache's a-going to the inside

A
My tears are holding back

B                     E
They're trying not to fall

A
My heart's out of the running

            D
True love's scratched for another's sake

A
The race is on, and it looks like heartache's

        E            A
And the winner loses all

[Outro] D E A
