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

When I powder my nose

Don't know what we've done

But the fire is coming

So I think we should run
