THE DISTANCE CHORDS

[Verse]
N.C.                                     
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
                    E7          E   
Engines pumping and thumping in time
    E7                                 
The green light flashes the flags go up
                          E                
Churning and burning they yearn for the cup
                         E7             
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
                        E         
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
                       B7                    
Reckless and wild they pour through the turns
      E7                                  
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern
        Em                           E        E7  
As they speed through the finish the flags go down
    B7                   E7             
The fans get up and they get out of town
                   E7                
The arena is empty except for one man
                              E7            
Still driving and striving as fast as he can
    Em                        B7              
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
                      Em               
And long ago somebody left with the cup
                              E               E7   
But he's driving and striving and hugging the turns
    E                                          
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns
E                      
He's going the distance


[Chorus]
E7                  
He's going for speed
          E7   
She's all alone
    E7                       
All alone in her time of need
E       E7                         B7                 
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
                                           Em   
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
               B7      
He's going the distance
B7   
Ah ah
      
Yah Oh
E E7 Em7 Em E7
         


[Verse]
                        A7                
No trophy no flowers no flashbulbs no line
                             E      E7    
He's haunted by something he cannot define
                            E                
Bowelshaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse
E7                         E             E7   
Assail him impale him with monster truck force
                                     E               
In his mind he's still driving still making the grade
                              E7                
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade
       E                          E7                 
'cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
     B7                             F#m7   Em7  
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
    Em                                        
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
    B7                Em7           Em 
And long ago somebody left with the cup
         Bm7                  E7                   
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns
                                 E             
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns
                      E7      
'cause he's going the distance


[Chorus]
     E7             
He's going for speed
E7             
She's all alone
    E7                       
All alone in her time of need
                                   B7                 
Because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course
                             Em                 
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
                           B7                 
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
                                    E7          
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
Em             B7      
He's going the distance
           E7  B7   
He's going for speed
Em         B7  B        E E7
He's going the distance   


[Outro]
       
Hey Hey
        E E7   
Hey All  alone
Em   
Oh no
Em             
Sorry All alone
      Em   
Oh no oh no
     
No no
