G  
It seems like yesterday,
Bm  
but it was long ago.
C                                        G  
Janey was lovely  she was the queen of my nights,
D                                         C                                G  
there in the darkness with the radio, playing low and
G  
The secrets that we shared,
Bm  
the mountains that we moved
C                            G  
Caught like wildfire out of control,
                      C                                                      D  
&lsquo till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove.
          Em        D                      G  
And I remember what she said to me,
          Em                 C                G  
how she swore that it never would end.
  Em                     D             C  
I remember how she held me, oh so tight.
C                                        D  
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.

Against the wind, we were running against the wind.
          C                Bm                    Am          C              G  
We were young and strong, we were running against the wind.

          G  
And the years rolled slowly past.
Bm  
And I found myself alone.
C                                  G  
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends,
D                                    C                          G  
I found myself further and further from my home.
And I guess I lost my way.
Bm  
There were oh, so many roads.
        C                         G  
I was living to run, and running to live.
        C                                          D  
Never worrying about paying, or even how much I owed.
          Em            D                              G  
Runnin' 8 miles a minute for months at a time,
            Em             C                      G  
breaking all of the rules that would bend.
     Em        D                      C  
I begin to find myself just searching,
                              D  
searching for shelter again and again.

G                Bm     C                                            G  
Against the wind,  a little something against the wind.

 G            Bm            C      G         C     D  

              Em            D                      G  
Well those drifter's days are past me now,
            Em         C                    G  
I've got so much more to think about.
Em                 D              C  
Deadlines and commitments 
                        D  
what to leave in, what to leave out.

 G              Bm     C

                                        G  
I'm still running against the wind.
