Johnny took a ticket to London

Jenny took a ticket to Spain
C majorC             A minorAm
Jenny fell in love with a movie star

And ran away to live in LA
C majorC        A minorAm

That have no place but I try

And I try
  G+G       C majorC

But they hang onto your heart

Like a ghost
    D#D#
Like a ghost

Chorus:
    C majorC        D MajorD
I keep running, I keep running
      G+G     G/F#    E minorEm
But they’re chasing me down like a memory
    C majorC        D MajorD
I keep running, I keep running
    G+G     G/F#      E minorEm
But you never get away from your history
    C majorC
I keep running
     D MajorD
Hear the ghosts of the past sing

Can I get further away
 C majorC           A minorAm
I saw you in a suit last Saturday night
  BB            E minorEm
And man I gotta say you have aged
  C majorC            A minorAm
So tell me what I look like in your eyes
     BB        E minorEm
A minorAm I the same enemy that you despise
   C majorC             A minorAm
Well five years should’ve been long enough
  BB           E minorEm
To forget the past but I try
