RUN FOR THE ROSES Written by: Dan Fogelberg (Unhurried waltz tempo) (Capo to taste. I usually capo one fret, but I am not sure whether this is the original key or not.) [Intro] C F G C F G [Verse 1] C F G Born in the valley, and raised in the trees C F G Of Western Kentucky, on wobbly knees C F Fm With Mama beside you, to help you along, C Am Dm G You'll soon be a-growing up strong. [Verse 2] C F G All the long lazy mornings, in pastures of green, C F G The sun on your withers, the wind in your mane C F Fm Could never prepare you for what lies ahead: C Am Dm G The run for the roses so red. And it's { CHORUS } F G Em Run for the roses as fast as you can F G Em Your fate is delivered. Your moment's at hand. F G Em F It's the chance of a lifetime, in a lifetime of chance, Dm G And it's high time you joined in the dance. A# F It's high time you joined in the dance. [Verse 3] C F G From sire to sire, it's born in the blood. C F G The fire of a mare and the strength of a stud. C F Fm It's breeding, and it's training, and it's something unknown, C Am F G That drives you and carries you home. { CHORUS } F G Em And it's run for the roses as fast as you can F G Em Your fate is delivered. Your moment's at hand. F G Em F It's the chance of a lifetime, in a lifetime of chance, Dm G And it's high time you joined in the dance. A# F It's high time you joined in the dance.X
