The race of champions,
D    A        E
 the pace the pace,
    Bm
the speed,

the need,
D    A         E
the need to seed,
    Bm              D   A      E
the chance to die.

  Bm                   D   A
Another dead don't cry,

D        A   E
what are you doing it for,
     Bm               D   A      E
want more, want more.

 Bm                    D   A
Another dead don't cry,
 E
another death don't cry,

to feed from speed,
F#
doing it all the time.
