[Intro] A [Verse 1]
A                              Amaj7    F#m
Acrid, the smell of burning rubber is a daily feature

D                             A
When I throw myself into reverse

A                      Amaj7          F#m
Check out of my surroundings, backin' up so blindly

D
My back to the universe

Bm              E7
Like a ship out of commission

Bm            E7
Like an arrow always missing

    D
I'm always missing
A [Verse 2]
A                Amaj7   F#m
I'm trying to lie like a pro and I know

D                        A
It looks easy from the outside

A                            Amaj7   F#m
But it's hard to hold your brow just so, enough to show

     D                         Bm
I've got other places to go tonight

Bm            E7
Like a record slowly twisting

Bm            E7
Like an arrow always missing

    D
I'm always whistling by
[Chorus]
         A         G    D
But it's you, it's you

                A  G  D
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into
Bm                    E7
Like the wind blowing in through your cold room

Bm              D              F#m
I will get the door on the way through

    E7  Bm
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 3]
A                          Amaj F#m
Tragic, the messages I send, my mind post-midnight

D                         A
Are showing seen but no reply

A                      Amaj7 F#m
So I mash the keys a million times for a million years and

D                            Bm
Maybe by chance, I'll say it right

Bm                 E7
Closing in on your middle distance

Bm                   E7
Filling quivers with ammunition

        D
But I'm always missing
[Chorus]
A    G   D
You, you (You)

              A  G   D
I wanna run into you (You)
I wanna run into
Bm                     E7
Like the light burning bright in your hard heart

Bm             D               F#m
I won't make a sound when I go dark

    E7  Bm
Ooh-ooh
[Bridge]
C#m            Bm
Can you see me through?

C#m            Bm
Do you hear me scratching at the outlines of you?

D C#m       Bm
I feel your heartbeat from a mile away

Bm
(Like it knows what I'm trying to say)

D
What I'm trying to say (I'm trying to say)

A
Trying to say (I'm trying to say)
A [Outro]
     A   (G/A)   D
It's you, you

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you, you (You)

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)

A  G    D
   You (You)

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)

              A  G    D
I wanna run into you (You)
A
