There's a ^Emhungry road I can only hope's Gonna ^Ameat me up inside There's a ^Cdrifting spirit ^B7coming clean In the ^Ameye of a lifelong ^Emfire Tell ^EmMonday I'll be around next week I'm ^Amrunning ahead of my days In the ^Cshotgun chance that ^B7scattered us I've seen the ^Amerror of my ^Emways Oh oh ^Coh, ^B7 Oh oh ^Emoh

VERSE 2: Well we've wrapped ourselves in golden crowns Like sun gods spitting rain Found a way home written on this map Like red dye in my veins In the hardest times that come around The fear of losing grows I've lost and seen the world shut down It's a darkness no one knows Oh oh oh, oh oh oh CHORUS:

And I've ^Gpoured out the pleasure and dealt with the pain ^DStanding in a station ^B7waiting in the rain I'm ^Cstarting to feel a little ^Gmuscle again But love is ^Dlost like a runaway tr^Gain Oh I'm ^Gout of control and out of my hands I'm ^Dtearing like a demon through ^B7no man's land ^CTrying to get a grip on my ^Glife again Nothing hits ^Dharder than a runaway tr^Gain
