Intro
F#m C#7 D A A/G# x2
[Verse 1]
F#m
While I powder my nose
C#7
He will powder his gums
D
And if I try to get close
A A/G#
He is already gone
F#m
Don't know where he's going
C#7
Don't know where he's been
D
But he is restless at night
A A/G#
Cause he has horrible dreams
F#m
So we lay in the dark
C#7
We've got nothing to say
D
Just the beating of hearts like
A A/G#
two drums in the grey
F#m
I don't know what we're doing
C#7
I don't know what we've done
D
But the fire is coming
A
So I think we should run
[Bridge]
A/G# F#m C#7
I think we should run, run, run, run
D A A/G#
Run, run, run, run
F#m C#7
Run, run, run, run
D A A/G#
Run, run, run, run
[Verse 2]
F#m
While I put on my shoes
C#7
He will button his coat
D
And we will step outside
A A/G#
Checking out the coast is
F#m
clear on both sides
C#7
'Cause we don't want to be seen
D
No, this is suicide
A A/G#
You can't see the ropes
F#m
And I won't tell my mother
C#7
It's better she don't know
D
And he won't tell his folks
A A/G#
'Cause they're already ghosts, so
F#m
We'll just keep each other as
C#7
safe as we can
D
Until we reach the border
A A/G#
Until we make our plan
[Bridge]
F#m C#7
To run, run, run, run
D A A/G#
To run, run, run, run
F#m C#7
To run, run, run, run
D A
[Verse 3]
A/G# F#m C#7
Will you stay with me, my love
D A
For another day?
F#m C#7
'Cause I don't want to be alone
D A
When I'm in this state
F#m C#7
Will you stay with me, my love
D A
'Till we're old and gray?
F#m C#7
'Cause I don't want to be alone
D A
When these bones decay
[Outro]
F#m C#7
Run, run, run, run
D A A/G#
Run, run, run, run
F#m C#7
Run, run, run, run
D A A/G#

Run, run, run, run
D A A/G#
Run...
