[Verse 1]
Everybody's Amwatching now                        C     EAnd you don't know
Where your nexAmt move is taking yoCu                 EWhere you need to go

A reason for remembering                        How you lost track of time
[Chorus]
You've got tAmo slo----w it dCo------wn     You're Erunnin' on empty now
You've got tAmo slo----w it dCo------wn       Just Estop and take a look around
You got devils in the Amdistance   CWatchin' you sleep  And they Erunnin' around with the friends you keep

When you start losiAmn' memories                  C     EOf what it was before
You started Amlyin' to yourself a long Ctime ago      ESo no one else finds out

That your reasons were excuses                  Oh and now you're all fresh out
[Chorus]
You've got tAmo slo----w it dCo------wn     You're Erunnin' on empty now
You've got tAmo slo----w it dCo------wn       Just Estop and take a look around
You got devils in the Amdistance   CWatchin' you sleep  And they Erunnin' around with the friends you keep
You've got tAmo slo----w                   CSlow it Edown

I got one thing to Amsay                          C     ESee I been there too
And now it ain't about Amme, no                   C     EBut it ain't all about you
So when you get to where you'Amre goin'        RemCember this
