A               D       A
A               D       A

[Verse]
A
First time I ran
                            D
Was to the end of the block
A
I didn't know then
                         D
That it never would stop
A
Now, I look around and what do I see?
A
More and more people running faster than me

[Chorus]
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run

[Verse]
A
When I fell in love
                         D
For the very first time
A
I couldn't keep up
                        D
With that girl of mine
A
Night after Night on a mighty fast track
A
She ran like the wind and she never looked back

[Chorus]
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run

[Solo]
A               D       A
A               D       A
A               D       A
A               D       A
D               A
D               A

[Verse]
A
Now I've been to England
                        D
And I've been to France
A
I've learned to love oysters
                        D
And I know how to dance
A
Someday I'll die and come back again
A
As some little boy just running to win

[Chorus]
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run
D
These days
                    A      A G
Everybody's on the run

[Bridge]
F#m
Look in the mirror, and what do I see?
D
The gypsy and fool that I always will be

[Outro]
D
These days
                    A
Everybody's on the run  (x4)

D               A
