She was born in November 1963 - the day that Aldous Huxley died
F#m
  And her mama believed that every man could be free
       A7
So her mama got high, high, high
  C7
And her daddy marched on Birmingham singing mighty protest songs
Am7
  And he pictured all the places where he knew that she'd belong

But he failed and taught her young the only thing she'd need to carry on

He taught her how to

Run baby run baby run baby run baby run

   A7                                  C7
Past the arms of the familiar and their talk of better days

To the comfort of the strangers, slipping out before they say "so long"

Baby loves to run

She counts out all her money in the taxi on the way to meet her plane
F#m
And stares hopeful out the window at the workers fighting
                A7

She's searching through the stations for an unfamiliar song
     Am7
And she's thinking 'bout all the places where she knows she still belongs
