[Intro]

C Am Em Em

G Em

[Verse]

C Am Em

I'm always dreaming I could run away

C Am Em

As long as I remember, it's been that way

There's nothing for me happening here

Or maybe there is, maybe I'm running out of fear

Or maybe life's only just begun

When you're on the run

Am Em

I go out each night, expecting more of the world

C Am Em

Something new and exciting something I've never heard

[Chorus]

But they want you to grow up

So that you can have their babies

Is there nothing else out there

Waiting for us maybe?

Some girls would just rather have fun

And be on the run

Am Em

On the run

Am Em

On the run

[Instrumental]

G Em G

[Verse]

C Am Em

Something tells me I'll be better off if I stay in my mind

C Am Em

It's like everyone round here have their watches set to Mountain time

Their perfect lives in paradise

Was never meant for me

Fuck it, I think I'd rather be

On the run

I'll go out each night

Am Em C

Expecting more of the world (on the run)

Something new and exciting

Am Em

Something I've never heard

Let them grow their beards and talk careers

But all their words have lost their meaning

I'd never wanna do what they expect me to

C Am Em

But something entirely new

C Am Em

Something entirely new

G Em G

C Am Em C

I'm always dreaming I could run away (on the run)

C Am Em

As long as I remember, it's been that way
