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
