[G]
I [C] had a hard run, [G] running from the wind.
I [C] was running, [G] thought I'd wander if you cared.
[C] I had to run it,
[Gm] run [G] around and run out.
[C] Around the corner, thought I'd run [G] smack into a tree.
I [D] had to move, [Am]
[G] really had to move.
[C] That's why [G] [D] I'm on my bare knees.
[Am] Where's the thought of you [C] coming around here anymore?
[G] Yes, my [C] seven dreams are way down under the sea.
[G] [C] Trying to see what's going down, down.
[Gm] Not free between [G] the line.
And I'm feeling [C] ever-falling, falling, falling.
Turn [G] around to see, how far I've [C] strung it.
[E] It's running [G] next to me.
I [D] had to [Am] move, [G]
really had to [D] move.
[C] That's why I'm [G] on [D]
my [C] bare knees.
[Am] Where's the thought of you coming around here [G] anymore?

[Am] Where's the thought of you coming around here [G] anymore?
Ran into [C] a rainstorm, stuck back [G] into a bar door.
[C] All night [A] falling, [C]
Lord, but not a drop [G] on me.
Test [C] me, test me.
Why don't you [G] arrest me?
[C]
[G] Throw me in the [C] jailhouse [G] till the sun comes down.
I [D] had to [Am] move, [G] really had to move.
[C]
That's why I'm [G] [D] on my bare [C] knees.
The [Am] bird that told you to come [G] around here anymore.
I [D] had to [Am] move,
[G] really had to move.
[C] That's why [G] if these, [D] I'm on my [C] bare knees.

I [D] had to [Am] move, [G]
really had [D] to move.
[C] That's why [G] if these, [D] I'm on my [C] bare knees.

[G] Anymore, anymore,

anymore, anymore, [C] anymore, [G] anymore.
