Lyrics

[Intro]
| E5 | - | - | - |

[Verse 1]
    E5
I'm passing sleeping cities
Fading by degrees
Not believing all I see to be so

[Verse 2]
    E5
I'm flying over backyards
Country homes and ranches
Watching life between the branches below

[Bridge]
         A5
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
             E5
Don't you, baby?

[Chorus]
            G5
You keep running for another place
   D5
To find that saving grace

[Verse 2]
E5    E5
  I'm moving on alone
Over ground that no one owns
Past statues that atone for my sins

[Verse 3]
          E5
There's a guard on every door
And a drink on every floor
Overflowing with a thousand amens

[Bridge]
         A5
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
             E5
Don't you, baby?

[Chorus]
            G5
You keep running for another place
   D5
To find that saving grace
E5
  Don't you, baby?

[Verse 4]
E5       E5
  You're rolling up the carpet
Of your father's tworoom mansion
No headroom for expansion no more

[Verse 5]
              E5
And there's a corner of the floor
They're telling you it's yours
You're confident but not really sure

[Bridge]
         A5
And it's hard to say
Who you are these days
But you run on anyway
             E5
Don't you, baby?

[Chorus]
            G5
You keep running for another place
   D5
To find that saving grace
E5
  Don't you, baby?
            G5
You keep running for another place
   D5
To find that saving grace
E5
  Don't you, baby?

[Outro]
