Run

(início)

INTRO: Am
Oh, my child
C
Thirty years today
    G
You came into my life
    Am
And everything changed
There's one thing I tried to teach you
                C
Girl, don't you waste your time
G
Come this September
          Am
You'll be somebody's wife
G                                   F
I won't paint a picture of what you want to see
Em                         Dm
Love is the harder times, take it from me
        F                     C        Am
I would run down the lane and into the night
F                       C          Am
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly
F                    C              Am
Run from my babies, asleep in their beds
F                     C       Am
Run from my lover and my best friend
    G
And back again
INSTRUMENTAL: Am   C   G   Am
And all of the courage
           C
I tried so hard to hold on to
G
Ever since that day
                     Am
You and your brother left for school
They say, just over that hill
    C
The fog rolled in
      G
And, "Come quick doctor
             Am
We think somebody's been killed"
    G                             F
And I have been a healer of other people's pain
      Em                                  Dm
Yeah, I know sometimes you don't like the ways I've changed
        F                       C       Am
But the smell of the world came into my lungs
    F                           C         Am
The sound of the gravel when my legs went numb
       F                        C         Am
And my heart nearly burst right out of my chest
   F                      C      Am
It felt so good to know I wasn't dead
        F                     C        Am
I would run down the lane and into the night
F                       C          Am
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly
F                    C              Am
Run from my babies, asleep in their beds
F                     C       Am
Run from my lover and my best friend
G
Back again
         Am
Back again
