[Verse]
C G C G
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
C G C G
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
C G C G
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up 1-0-1
C(5) G/B D7
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
[Refrain]
C G
Running on - running on empty
C G
Running on - running blind
C G
Running into the sun
Em
But I'm running behind
[Verse]
C G C G
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
C G C G
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
C G C G
In sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
C(5) G/B D7
I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on
[Refrain]
C G
Running on - running on empty
C G
Running on - running blind
C G
Running into the sun
Em
But I'm running behind
[Solo]
[Bridge]
Em C D7 G
Everyone I know, everywhere I go
Em D7 C
People need some reason to believe
G
I don't know about anyone but me
Em C D7/A G
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
C D7 C(5) G/B D/A G Em G/D
If I can get you to smile before I leave
[Verse]
C G C G
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
C G C G
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
C G C G
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
C(5) G/B D7/A
Looking into their eyes I see them running too
[Refrain]
C G
Running on - running on empty
C G
Running on - running blind
C G
Running into the sun
Em
But I'm running behind
[Verse]

Honey you really tempt me
C G
You know the way you look so kind

I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind,
C
Running on-
D7/A C(5) G/B D/A G Em G/D
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
