C                                 F                                        C
Runnin' for the mountains, yeah I got a heavy load that's been hauntin' my day

                              F                                    C
Fightin' my old demons, seems like it's gettin' a lot harder these days

        G                 F                     C
But I'm doin' what I can, runnin' from my crazy ways

C                     F                                     C
Tattoo'd and branded, shootin' down things, doin' it my own way

                              F                                      C
Livin' like an outlaw, lovin' all the pain, the hard times comin' my way

       G                        F                    C
No I'm not losing myself to the changin' ways of to- day

C                                  F                                C
Busted held for ransom, yeah, I've done my time getting beat by the man

                                      F                                  C
Driftin' stoned and lonesome, yeah, I know how to get by the best that I can

          G                         F             C
Yeah, I'm lookin' for a mountain to wash my dirty hands
[Chorus]
         F                                        C
Hey, I'm lookin' for a mountain that I wanna call home

          F                                         C
Yeah, I'm lookin' for a mountain a place to rest my bones

      G                         F                      C
And I just want to breathe that mountain air until I'm gone

        G                         F                      C
Yeah, I just want to breathe that mountain air until I'm gone

Runnin' on empty, I've been speedin' so hard my eyes are turnin' gray

C                           F                                           C
Feelin' mean and shaky from all the hell raisin' that I've done for the day

        G                  F                       C
