Intro: C G C G C G Em?C9 G/B D7


C                   G          C                G
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
C                   G                     C                 G
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
C                   G             C               G
In sixty five I was seventeen and running up 1 0 1
C9                     G/B                   D7
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on


Refrain:
        C              G
Running on, running on empty
        C           G
Running on, running blind
C                G
Running into the sun
               Em
But I'm running behind


C                G                           C    G
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
C                 G                    C           G
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
C                    G                C                 G
In sixty nine I was twenty one and I called the road my own
C9                     G/B                   D7
I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on


        (Repeat Refrain)

Bridge:
Em         C     D7           G
Everyone I know, everywhere I go
Em               D7        C
People need some reason to believe
                   G
I don't know about anyone but me
Em              C      D7/A           G
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
C                   D7              C9  G/B D/A G Em G/D
If I can get you to smile before I leave


C                  G                     C     G
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
C                   G                     C               G
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
C                     G                      C                  G
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
C9                 G/B             D7/A
Looking into their eyes I see them running too


        (Repeat Refrain)

C                G
Honey you really tempt me
             C               G
You know the way you look so kind
C           D7/A                           C9   G/B D/A G Em G/D
I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind,
        C
Running on
                      D7/A                    C9   G/B D/A G Em G/D
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
         C                      D7/A                  C9   G/B D/A G
Running Blind, running into the sun but I'm running behind


Outro:  C G C G C G Em?C9 G/B D7
                C9 G/B D/A G
