Well, we know where we're going, but we don't know where [Ab] we've been.
And we know what [N] we're knowing, but we can't say what we've seen.
And we're not made of children, and we know what we want.
And the future is changing, give us time to [E] work it [F] out.
We're on the move, but [D] we're double -inside.
[F] Take a step back, look [D] ahead, and blink that eyes.
[Bb] We're in a big moment, [F] [C] and you know
[Bb] we're on the road to [F] paradise.
Here [C] we go, here [F] we go.
We're on the run, but we know [Dm] where we've gone inside.
[F] Take a step back,
[Dm] we'll take a drive.
[Bb] Maybe they're wondering [F] who you are, I [C] don't care.
[Bb] Here's what's happening on the [F] outside.
Take [C] a step, take [F] a step.
We're on the run, but we know where.
[Dm]
[F] We're on the run, but we [Dm] know where.
[F] We're on the run, [Dm] but we know where.
The [F] future is sitting in my mind, I'm on the move, take the ride.
[Dm] It's hard, baby, it's hard.
And it's very far [F] away, but it's growing day by day.
[Dm] It's hard, baby, it's hard.
[F] What's been happening on the inside?
I hope you see the light.
[Dm] It's hard, baby, it's hard.
[F] We can change what you do, but don't make them fool you.
[Dm] It's alright, [F] baby, it's alright.
[Dm] It's hard, baby, it's alright.
[F] And it's very far
[Dm] away, but it's growing day [F] by day.
It's hard,
[Dm] baby, it's hard.
[F] And it's very far
[Dm] away, but it's growing
[F] day by day.
We're on the run, but we know where.
[Dm]
[F] We're on the run, but we know where.
[Dm] We're
[F] on the run, but we know where.
[Dm]
[F] We're on the run, but [Abm] we know where.
