Verse 1:
D            C        G         D
She's got me runnin', tryin' to find her,
       C         G        D
Like a diesel on tracks behind her,
         C                G          D
Though I know from me she wants to escape,
       C     G               D
Fool I am, I won't accept my fate,
       C            G      D
So I'm runnin', and I'm so tired,
           C               G          D
Can't stop now cause she's got such a headstart,
    C              G           D
Any day I know I'm steppin' to find,
        C           G        D
Another man holdin' what was mine,
D

Still runnin'.


Hook 1:
         C         G     D
They say love, can be so blind,
           C                G           D
And it can almost drive you out of your mind,
        C      G        D
Look at me, an educated fool,
            C                    G        D
Loving this woman that's made me bloat my cool.


Hook 2:
       C        G         D
So I'm runnin', tryin' to find her,
       C         G        D
Like a diesel on tracks behind her,
    C              G           D
Any day I know I'm steppin' to find,
        C           G             D
Another man holding what once was mine.


Interlude:
D
Still runnin',
D
Tryin' to get somewhere,
B
C      G       D
 Still runnin' momma,
C      G       D
 Still runnin' baby,
C      G                   D
 Still tryin' to get it together, somehow I know,
C      G                 D
Let me tell you one more time.

D
Can’t take it much longer, honey.
