Joey Cape: Going For The Bronze
Intro:
[Abm] [B] [F#] [C#] [F#]
[Abm]I'm taking it slow, keeping the pace
[B]I'm only looking to place
[F#]Never a loss, never a win
[D#]Bronze metals hang from my bed
[Abm]I'm running the grey matter laps
[B]Outta my mind on the outer track
[F#]If I don't feel someone else will
[D#]It's all downhill from here
[Abm]On my own
[B]Running out the [F#]one man marathon
[D#]Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
[Abm]Taken the licks, getting my stripes
[B]Everything in life comes with a price
[F#]By a thread stay alive
[D#]Make it happen with a third rate stride for the
[Abm]Runner up, runner up, runner up prize
[B]I'll take what I can get at the finish line
[F#]Drafting the pack in the blind
[D#]All thoroughbreds in their prime
[Abm]Bound to show
[B]Running down this lonely road
[F#]Forgoing the gold
[D#]I'm going, going, going for the bronze
Guitar Solo:
[Abm] [B] [F#] [D#]
[Abm]I know there could be [B]nothing more than this
As there all [F#]pushing their limits
I am left [D#]wondering what I miss
[Abm]Because they all seemed trapped
Hopelessly [B]fighting over scraps
I won't [F#]miss them when they're gone
I won't [D#]miss them when they're gone
[Abm]On my own
[B]Running out the one man marathon
[F#]Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
[D#]Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
