Verse:
        Cm                      A#       D#
When my blood runs warm with an old red wine
   A#                   G#    D#
I miss the life that I left behind
           Cm                    A#           D#
And when I hear the sound of the blackbird's cry
  A#                  G#       D#
I know I left in the nick of time

Verse:
          Cm                  A#       D#
Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand
    A#                  G#       D#
And leave me lost in a far-off land
          Cm                    A#          D#
So let me ride the wind 'till I don't look back
       A#                   G#      D#
And forget the life that I almost had

Pre-Chorus:
     G#       Cm     D#
If I wander 'till I die
      G#          Cm        Gm7
May I know whose hands I'm in
          G#         Cm    D#
And if my home I'll never find
A#           G#     D#
Then let me live again

Chorus:
    D#                     G#           D#
The longer I run then the less that I find
                      G#          D#
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
D#                    G#                  D#
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    A#      Cm
And losing again

Verse:
        Cm                    A#        D#
Tell my brother please not to look for me
  A#                    G#       D#
I ain't the man that I used to be
          Cm                      A#       D#
But if my saviour comes could you let him know
       A#              G#       D#
I've gone away for to save my soul

Pre-Chorus:
     G#       Cm     D#
If I wander 'till I die
      G#          Cm        Gm7
May I know whose hands I'm in
          G#         Cm    D#
And if my home I'll never find
A#           G#     D#
Then let me live again

Chorus -x2-:
    D#                     G#           D#
The longer I run then the less that I find
                      G#          D#
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
D#                    G#                  D#
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
    A#      Cm
And losing again
