1. Go ahead and laugh at me,
          A                       Bmi
   Try to be the man you wanna be.
   Baby, it's not hard to see
          A        E
   What's going on.
     D
   Well maybe we should celebrate,
         A                             Bmi
   Drink champagne, why should we wait?
   Why don't we ask some friends around,
            D
   They can help us play
   This game we found.
         E
   Let's bring ev'rybody down,
   Will we ever be ready
   For what we're headin' for?

R: Here we stand like a couple of fools
           E       A
   And the race is on.
   D                  A
   Hand in hand as we break the rules,
           E       A
   And the race is on.
   D                    A
   What's become to the one we love
            E         A
   When the race goes wrong?
   You may say,
   D                 A
   Why begin when we both can't win
           E         A
   But the race goes on.
   D                   A
   Hand in hand like a couple of fools
           E       A
   And the race is on.

2. Well surprise surprise,
   A  few  morelies 
   Or do we simply call them alibies?
   This life we live
   Ain't fooling either one of us.
   Oh, and while we're having so much fun,
   Let's not forget the lowly ones.
   Slowly falling out of love,
   This game we play can be so rough.
   Now maybe we've gone far enough.
   But are you sure you know
   Just what went wrong?
