D                     
When I was a young boy 
                         A
nothing much mattered to me
                              
You were a girl and a half and 
                        D
you saw yourself a mystery 
                             
We got together for a while, 

I did everything 
              A
you wanted me to
                          
Well I tried and you lied, 
                            D
I was left here back in the blue
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D                   
If you're gonna run, 
              E
Are you gonna run today?

G                            D
Is it because I'm out on the road?
F                C    
You never had it good, 
                 D
you never had it anyway

G         A           G
More more more making waves
 
 
[Verse]

 
      D                      
I was always right there when 
              A
you wanted to play 
                                 
You were living in a scene from a 
                      D
dream every night and day
                          
And I never found a way to 
                   A
make it better for you
                         
Oh I tried and I tried but 
                        D
you left me back in the blue
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
D                   
If you're gonna run,  
              E
are you gonna run today?

G                            D
Is it because I'm out on the road?
F                C   
You never had it good, 
                 D
you never had it anyway

D                     
What you gonna do now? 
                         A
Nothing left, nothing to say
                               
Well I must have been a fool to 
                  D
believe in you anyway
                            
When I tried to find a way or 
                       A
Something that I could do

                               
You threw it all in my face and 
                        D
You left me back in the blue
