INTRO: Bm A

#1.
A                                 F#m
You ask me girl if now I'm licked because I've been 

knocked down and kicked.
    C#m                                 B
You hope I'm beaten, that I'd stop, but all it does 
                D
is slow me up a little.
D                                E   A
But I ain't done yet, cause I'll die first.

CHORUS:
Bm                           A
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.
D                            A
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.

#2.
A                                  F#m
It seems like I have never known a morning I could call 
          C#m                             Bm
my own..a day when fate belonged to me to command as I 
    D
see fitting.
D                                  A
That don't happen, but it's fun to think of.

CHORUS:
Bm                           A
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.
D                            A
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.

#3.
A    Bm                                     A
Your friends come on like movie stars..they laugh too loud 

and try too hard.
D                                     G
In your hopped up mind you feel, this twisted masquerade 

is real.

CHORUS:
C              F                E
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..ooohhhhhhhhhhhh..aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..

#4.
    Bb                                   Gm7
The riot squad breaks down the wall, the lights go on you look 
           Dm                                     C
at all the faces of your friends have changed but I'm just walking 
                  Eb                     F      Bb
down this country highway..down a dusty, lovely evening.

OUTRO:
Eb                           Bb
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.
Eb                           Bb
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind.
Eb                           Bb
Aaaaahhhhhhhh..race with the wind..(Fade.)
