gaps in floor boards

We would like to stain and varnish our bedroom floor, it looks to have been done round the edges, many years ago before fitted carpets.
the problem is that over the years certain boards have been lifted for radiator pipes and electrics, all of the boards have a bit of shrinkage and where the boards have been lifted the tongue has been removed to get them up leaving a nasty narrow gap, I was thinking of filling it neatly with a
brown decorators mate from a mastic gun:eek: prior to sanding and staining etc.
any better ideas please?
