An oth er day, an oth er dol lar gone.
When I get up in the morn ing, I just can’t go on.
I feel the out stretched hands of time;
I ain’t ly in’.
But some thing’s call ing from down deep with in, like I fi n’lly start ed liv ing for my self a gain.
I shake the out stretched hands of time
I ain’t ly in’.
Changed my mind.
’Cause I wan na run
that (Bm)race.
I wan na run
that (Bm)race.
I’ll do it on
my (Bm)pace, long as I get to run that race a gain.
I feel dis cour aged and I doubt my self, but you know you can’t blame it on no bod y else.
On ly you know where it is you be long.
Sing a long:
We got ta run
that (Bm)race.
We got ta run
that (Bm)race.
We’ll do it on
our (Bm)pace, long as we get to run that race a gain.
When I lay my head on my (A)pil low at night, I think a bout what’s still go ing (Gmaj7)right.
Thank the stars up a bove there’s (F#sus)still things left that I (F#)know.
I wan na run
that (Bm)race.
I wan na run
that (Bm)race.
I wan na run
that (Bm)race.
