Joey Cape: Going For The Bronze
Intro:
Abm B F# C# F#
Abm
I'm taking it slow, keeping the pace
B
I'm only looking to place
F#
Never a loss, never a win
D#
Bronze metals hang from my bed
Abm
I'm running the grey matter laps
B
Outta my mind on the outer track
F#
If I don't feel someone else will
D#
It's all downhill from here
Abm
On my own
B F#
Running out the one man marathon
D#
Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
Abm
Taken the licks, getting my stripes
B
Everything in life comes with a price
F#
By a thread stay alive
D#
Make it happen with a third rate stride for the
Abm
Runner up, runner up, runner up prize
B
I'll take what I can get at the finish line
F#
Drafting the pack in the blind
D#
All thoroughbreds in their prime
Abm
Bound to show
B
Running down this lonely road
F#
Forgoing the gold
D#
I'm going, going, going for the bronze
Guitar Solo:
Abm B F# D#
Abm B
I know there could be nothing more than this
F#
As there all pushing their limits
D#
I am left wondering what I miss
Abm
Because they all seemed trapped
B
Hopelessly fighting over scraps
F#
I won't miss them when they're gone
D#
I won't miss them when they're gone
Abm
On my own
B
Running out the one man marathon
F#
Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
D#
Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze
