     C             F 
Well I'm so sad tonight 
        C                  F 
And the words won't come out right 
     C                    F 
It's been a long day on the track 
        C              F 
And it's stamina that I lack

So won't you run to me tonight 
G                        F 
Do not pretend that we're just lovers 
C   G    F    G    F    
But I'll only ever be 
  C  G   F   G    F G C 
A middle distance runner

  C                    F 
Well my heart is beating hard 
  C                            F 
And the mouth with the shot at the start 
  C                      F 
And my legs tremble from strain 
  C                        F 
But by the finish line I am drained 


C           Am     F     C 
So won't you run to me tonight 
G                        F 
Do not pretend that we're just lovers 
C   G    F    G    F    
But I'll only ever be

A middle distance runner

 C                 F 
Of the woman you've become 
 C                      F 
And I'm just too tired to fight 
 C                F 
So my darling I'll succomb 


C                 Am     F     C
