[Intro] D G D G D G D G D G D D G D G D G D [Verse] 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?
