Version 1
            Grateful Dead
ALBUM: Reckoning (Live) 
Country Shuffle

VERSE:
       G                           G               C                   G
I feel tears welling up from down deep inside,like my hearts got a big break
      G                                        A            D
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful that I may never shake.
G                                                C                   G
You might think that Im taking it hard since you broke me off with a call,
          G                                         D                  G       C-G
You might wager that Ill hide in sorrow and I might lay right down and bawl.

CHORUS:
                G                                  
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,
C                               G                           A            D
Heartaches a goin to the inside, My tears are holding back, tryin not to fall.
G                                       C                       G
My hearts our of the running, true love scratched for another's sake,
            G                                        D            G        C-G
The race is on and it looks like heartaches, and the winner loses all.

(SOLO: CHORUS and VERSE progressions)

VERSE:
           G                                              C                  G
One day I ventured in love never once suspecting what the final result would be.
      G                                          A                            D
Now I live in fear of waking up each morning,and finding that youre gone from me.
           G                                            C                  G
There's an aching pain in my heart for the name of the one that I hated to face,
        G                                    D             G          C-G
Someone else came out to win her, and I came out in second place.

CHORUS:
                G
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,
C                               G                           A            D
Heartaches a goin to the inside, my tears are holding back, tryin not to fall.
G                                       C                       G               
My hearts our of the running, true love scratched for another's sake,
            G                                        D            G        C-G
The race is on and it looks like heartaches, and the winner loses all.

                G
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,
C                               G                           A            D
Heartaches a goin to the inside, my tears are holding back, tryin not to fall.
G                                       C                       G               
My hearts our of the running, true love scratched for another's sake,
            G                                        D            G        C-G
The race is on and it looks like heartaches, and the winner loses all.
