[Verse]
F    F      Am         Bb            C    
Born in the valley and raised in the trees
   F       Am          Bb     Bb C    
Of Western Kentucky on wobbly ■  knees
F         Am            Bb            
With mama beside you to help you along
F              Dm         Gm     Gm C
You'll soon be growin' up strong ■  ■
       F         Am          Bb          C    
Oh the long lazy mornings in pastures of green
F               Am          Bb           C   
The sun on your withers the wind in your mane
F           Am              Bb             
Could never prepare you for what lies ahead
    F           Dm       Gm  C
The run for the roses so red ■
         Bb          C        Am             
And it's run for the roses as fast as you can


[Chorus]
Bb           C              Am              
Your fate is delivered your moment's at hand
         Bb          C           Am            Dm    
It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance


[Verse]
         Bb                          C    
And it's high time you joined in the dance
Eb                 Bb                 
It's high time you joined in the dance
F            Am        Bb          C    
From sire to sire it's born in the blood
    F         Am           Bb            C7  
The fire of a mare and the strength of a stud
F                      Am7               Bb               
It's breeding and it's training and it's something unknown
F                   Dm          Gm   C
That drives you and carries you home ■


[Chorus]
         Bb          C        Am             
And it's run for the roses as fast as you can
Bb           C         Am                   
Your fate is delivered your moment's at hand
         Bb          C             Am          Dm    
It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance


[Solo]
         Bb                          C    
And it's high time you joined in the dance
Eb                               Bb   
It's high time you joined in the dance
