RUN FOREVER
RUN FOREVER
TUNING: standard
CAPO: 1st fret
[Intro]
Em
 EmYou say that you've been better but I only hear you Dcrying now
 EmIn the middle of the night when you're asleep inside that Dempty house
Pictures Chang to serve as Dreminders of memories from Emyears ago
A vacation you Ctook with an Dold boyfriend to the Gwest coast
But it was too Chot, and it was too Dhard to be Gcomfortable
In the black hills in CJune at the Dfoot of that Indian GstatueEm  
Carved into the Cside of a mountain you Dpaid all that money to Gsee
And all that you Csaw was some rock but it Dmade you feel grateful to Gbe
You bought a Cpostcard Dwith its picture Gon it
And you're gonna Csend it back Dhome to your famiGly
 EmYou say that you're still angry, you just hate the thought of Dfighting now
 EmAnd a heart can only hate someone so much before it Dburns out
Like cigaCrettes pressed aDgainst the glass of an Gashtray
At first he felt Cgood, but then he made you Dnauseous eveGryday
But it was too Chot, and it was too Dhard to be Gcomfortable
In that miserable Chouse that you did your Dbest to make feel like a GhomeEm  
And after the Carguments you'd go to Ddifferent bedrooms to Gsleep
But all by yourCself in the dark, you couldn't Dhelp feeling grateful to Gbe
And you found the Cpostcard Dwith that worn picture Gon it
That you never Csent but instead kept it Dtaped in an old diaGry

"Separate Bedrooms"

RUN FOREVER

TUNING: standard

CAPO: 1st fret

[Intro]

Em D

You say that you've been better but I only hear you crying now

Em D

In the middle of the night when you're asleep inside that empty house

C D Em

Pictures hang to serve as reminders of memories from years ago

C D G

A vacation you took with an old boyfriend to the west coast

C D G

But it was too hot, and it was too hard to be comfortable

C D G Em

In the black hills in June at the foot of that Indian statue

C D G

Carved into the side of a mountain you paid all that money to see

C D G

And all that you saw was some rock but it made you feel grateful to be

C D G

You bought a postcard with its picture on it

C D G

And you're gonna send it back home to your family

Em D

You say that you're still angry, you just hate the thought of fighting now

Em D

And a heart can only hate someone so much before it burns out

C D G

Like cigarettes pressed against the glass of an ashtray

C D G

At first he felt good, but then he made you nauseous everyday

C D G

But it was too hot, and it was too hard to be comfortable

C D G Em

In that miserable house that you did your best to make feel like a home

C D G

And after the arguments you'd go to different bedrooms to sleep

C D G

But all by yourself in the dark, you couldn't help feeling grateful to be

C D G

And you found the postcard with that worn picture on it

C D G

That you never sent but instead kept it taped in an old diary
