[Verse 1]
F Gm
What have you gathered to report to your progenitors?
Am Gm
Are your excuses any better than your senator's?
F Gm
He held a conference and his wife was standing by his side
C
He did her dirty but no one died
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dm Am/E
I saw Sonny Liston on the street last night
F Gm A#
Black-fisted and strong singing Redemption Song
C
He motioned me to the sky
F
I heard heaven and thunder cry
[Chorus 1]
A# Dm
Run for cover
F Gm
Run while you can baby, don't look back
A# Dm
You gotta run for cover
F C
Don't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, man
Am A# C Dm
You know you're not the only one
A# C
And don't look back, just run for cover
[Verse 2]
F Gm
What are you waiting for, a kiss or an apology?
Am Gm
You think by now you'd have an A in toxicology
F Gm
It’s hard to pack the car when all you do is shame us
C
It’s even harder when the dirtbag’s famous
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dm Am/E
I saw my mother on the street last night
F Gm A#
All pretty and strong, singing “the road is long”
C
I said “Momma, I know you’ve tried”
But she fell on her knees and cried
[Chorus 2]
A# Dm
Run for cover
F Gm
Run while you can baby, don't look back
A# Dm
You gotta run for cover
F C
Don't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, man
Am A# C Dm
I know you're not the only one
A# C
And don't look back, just run for cover
[Bridge]
Am A# Dm
And there was nothing she wouldn't give
A# Am A#
Just to trust him with her nightmares, with her dreams
Dm C
Now she's running, she's running
A#
Just to trust him
Dm
He got big smile, he's fake news
F
Just run for cover, you've got nothing left to lose
[Chorus 3]
N.C. Dm
Run for cover
F Gm
Run while you can baby, don't look back
A# Dm
You gotta run for cover
F C
Don't be afraid of the fear, that's a played out trap, man
Am A# C Dm
You know you're not the only one
A# C
And don't look back, just run for cover, run!
