Chords for George Jones on Ronnie Prophet Show 1980 "The Race is On"

_ _ _ We've got a guy on this show tonight who has probably influenced more country singers than anybody.
And he's got a voice so smooth that he's referred to as the Rolls Royce of country singers.
In little over 26 years, he has over 148 albums to his credit.
Please make welcome, the great George Jones. _ _
_ _ _ Well I feel good, well enough, going deep inside my heart
[Ab] This life I'm going is something painful
I [Eb] ain't never [Ab] ashamed
You might say I was taking it hard when you wrote the over the board
Don't you think you had a hard time [Eb] when I'm really right down [Ab] and bored
Well the race is on
Here come [Db] God at the backstage
Heartaches are going to the inside
[Ab] I'm here to hold him back
I'm the [Eb] time of the hour
[Ab] My heart's out of the running
I'm stressed for a man to sing
The race is on
Looks like party
[Eb] And the winner [Ab] loses all _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ [Bb] One day I ventured in love
Never once [Db] suspecting what the final result [Ab] would be
I lived in fear waking up each morning
Thinking [Eb] that you'd gone away
[Ab] Aching and paining is my heart for my dear
I hate it
Somebody who's up this morning
[Eb] Never taking her away [Ab] from me
Well the race is on
Here come God [Db] at the backstage
Heartaches are going to [Ab] the inside
I'm here to hold him back
I'm the [Eb] time of the hour
[Ab] My heart's out of the running
I'm stressed for a man to sing
The race is on
Looks like party
[Eb] And the winner loses [Ab] all
[Eb] And the winner gets a little [Ab] bit more
