[intro] D# A# D# A# D# A# [verse 1] D# I lit a burning log A# Left food out for the dogs and tiptoed down D# I put the shoes on by the door A# Those creakin' wooden boards didn't make a sound [pre-chorus] D# I'll be thinkin' of you, love D# I'll be missin' your sweet touch A# But I've got far to go [chorus] D# 'Cause I'm on the run A# I've been standin' still for way too long D# I wanna live like I'm forever young A# Tryna hold it down just ain't no fun D# I'll pack a bag and leave before the sun A# And I'll take the long windin' roads D# And when they call, blame it on rock and roll A# Start again, forget the things I've done D# If they ask you where I've gone, I'm on the run A# I'm on the run, I'm on the run [verse 2] D# You've been a little lost A# Workin' 'round the clock towin' the line D# You're in a world you don't belong D# Tryna find your way back home A# But you could stay a while on the passenger side A# There's books to read and songs to write D# If you wanna leave this town D# I could turn the car around A# You could say your goodbyes A# Get outta here tonight [chorus] D# Come on around 'Cause you've been standin' A# still for way too long D# Life's too short to not live while you're young A# Tryna hold it down just ain't no fun D# Let's pack a bag and leave before the sun A# And we'll take the long windin' roads D# And drive up to the lochs I used to know A# You can buy a postcard, write it to your mum Sayin' you miss her, but for now, D# you're on the run (I'm on the run) [outro] Try to hold me down, oh, A# I go home (I'm on the run) D# Let's leave this town tonight, come on the run A# D# We could spend our lives on the run
