^AbmI'm taking it slow, keeping the pace ^BI'm only looking to place ^F#Never a loss, never a win ^D#Bronze metals hang from my bed ^AbmI'm running the grey matter laps ^BOutta my mind on the outer track ^F#If I don't feel someone else will ^D#It's all downhill from here

^AbmOn my own ^BRunning out the ^F#one man marathon ^D#Going for the bronze, bronze, bronze

^AbmTaken the licks, getting my stripes ^BEverything in life comes with a price ^F#By a thread stay alive ^D#Make it happen with a third rate stride for the ^AbmRunner up, runner up, runner up prize ^BI'll take what I can get at the finish line ^F#Drafting the pack in the blind ^D#All thoroughbreds in their prime

^AbmBound to show ^BRunning down this lonely road ^F#Forgoing the gold ^D#I'm going, going, going for the bronze

^AbmI know there could be ^Bnothing more than this As there all ^F#pushing their limits I am left ^D#wondering what I miss ^AbmBecause they all seemed trapped Hopelessly ^Bfighting over scraps I won't ^F#miss them when they're gone I won't ^D#miss them when they're gone
