E F E F E F E F [Verse 1]
E                F
I made a daring escape

E               F     E  F  E  F 
In the guise of a nun

E                 F      E   
It took them most of the day

           F     E    F   E  F
To realize I was gone

E                   F    E              F
I crossed the forest and fields of wheat

E                   F       E               F 
A farmer's daughter gave me something to eat

E       F E          F   E    F 
I stole a paper just to see

  E
A picture of me
[Chorus 1]
                E   F  E    
I'm a desperate man

        F       E       F  E
I gotta keep on running

        F         E    F  E  F  
I gotta do what I can

   E              F   E  F
To get back to you
[Verse 2]
E              F     E
I made the overnight ferry

              F   E     F E  F
By the skin of my teeth

E               F         E 
I fell asleep between the truckers

               F    E     F  E  F 
Sprawled across the seats

E               F    E         F
I see your face everywhere I go

E            F  E           F
In every café, watering hole

E         F  E              F  E   F  
What is the hold you've got on me 

E
Baby?
[Chorus 2]
                E   F  E    
I'm a desperate man

        F       E       F  E
I gotta keep on running

        F         E    F  E  F  
I gotta do what I can

   E              F   E  F
To get back to you
[Chorus 3]
                E   F  E    
I'm a desperate man

        F       E       F  E
I gotta keep on running

        F       E    F  E  F  
Running back to you

  E              F   E    F  E E  F
Nobody else will do
[Solo] E E E F 8x [Chorus 4]
                E   F  E    
I'm a desperate man

        F       E       F  E
I gotta keep on running

Running back to you

Nobody else will do
