INTRO: D A D A
#1.
[D]Go ahead and laugh at me, try to [A]be the
man you oughta be.
[Bm]Baby, it's not hard to see what's [A]going on.
Well, [D]maybe we should celebrate, [A]drink champagne,
why should we wait?
[Bm]Why don't we ask some friends around, they can
[D]help us play this game we found..[E]let's bring
everybody down.
Will we [E7]ever be ready for what we're heading for?
CHORUS:
[D]Here we stand like a [A]couple of fools..and the [E]race
is [A]on.
[D]Hand in hand as we [A]break the rules..and the [E]race
is [A]on.
[D]What's the cost to the [A]one who lost when the [E]race
goes [A]wrong.
You may say, [D]why begin, when we [A]both can't win, but
the [E]race goes [A]on.
[D]Hand in hand like a [A]couple of fools and the [E]race is [A]on.
(INTERLUDE:) D A D E
#2.
Well, [D]surprise surprise, a few more lies, or do we
[A]simply call them alibis?
This [Bm]life we lead ain't fooling either [A]one of us.
And [D]while we're having so much fun let's [A]not forget
the lonely ones.
It's [Bm]lonely falling out of love, this [D]game we play
can be so rough.
Now [E]maybe we've gone far enough..[E7]are you sure you
know just what where heading for?
