Song: Human Race
Artist: Tom Cochrane
Album: Songs of a Circling Spirit

This version tabbed by Andre Bruneau <nitotem2@yahoo.com>
Standard tuning (EADGBE)

----------------------------------------------
I'm not a very strong guitar player, especially when it comes
to lead guitar.  Even the little fills here and there give me trouble.
But, this is the way I play this acoustic version of the song.
You know the rules though - this is a guide only.
You'll have to listen to the real deal to fill in the gaps yourself.
(or wait until I improve enough to add the fills later!)

Intro:
        A      G     B   (fill 1) B
        A      G     B   (fill 1) B

Verse 1:
        G
        I can see it on the road ahead
                                                B
        running hard I'm here, but I could be there instead
        G
        Many houses with the lights on
        Silhouettes behind the shades beside fires -
        B
        I'm sure I saw you in one
        G
        I loved you but that was way back then
                                      B
        Now I'm alone outside - I face the wind, the rain washes me thin

Chorus
A
Knocked me down but I got back up
   G                          B (fill 1)
I got myself back in the race again
A
Knock me down and I'll get back up
          G                             B
and I'll get myself back in the race again


Verse 2:
        Race through the shadows - race against stone
        the sunken city I thought was my own
        Might be a brave new world
        but it's really not my home
        Roll over fall in "My God" I screamed
        They might catch them but they won't catch me
        I'm out here clean and I'm free
        - yes I'm free

[Repeat Chorus]

Guitar solo:
        G       B
        G       B

[Repeat Chorus]

Outro:
        A       G       B
