Introduction: Em B7 C G G/F#
Em
While I powder my nose
B7
He will powder his gums
C
And if I try to get close
G G/F#
He is already gone
Em
Don' t know where he' s going
B7
Don' t know where he' s been
C
But he is restless at night
G G/F#
Cause he has horrible dreams
Em
So we lay in the dark
B7
We' ve got nothing to say
C
Just the beating of hearts like
G G/F#
two drums in the grey
Em
I don' t know what we' re doing
B7
I don' t know what we' ve done
C
But the fire is coming
G
So I think we should run

I think we should run, run, run, run
C G G/F#
Run, run, run, run
Em B7
Run, run, run, run
C G G/F#
Run, run, run, run
Em
While I put on my shoes
B7
He will button his coat
C
And we will step outside
G G/F#
Checking out the coast is
Em
clear on both sides
B7
' Cause we don' t want to be seen
C
No, this is suicide
G G/F#
You can' t see the ropes
Em
And I won' t tell my mother
B7
It' s better she don' t know
C
And he won' t tell his folks
G G/F#
' Cause they' re already ghosts, so
Em
We' ll just keep each other as
B7
safe as we can
C
Until we reach the border
G G/F#
Until we make our plan
Em B7
To run, run, run, run
C G G/F#
To run, run, run, run
Em B7
To run, run, run, run
G/F# Em B7
Will you stay with me, my love
C G
For another day?
Em B7
' Cause I don' t want to be alone
C G
When I' m in this state
Em B7
Will you stay with me, my love
C G
' Till we' re old and gray?
Em B7
' Cause I don' t want to be alone
C G
When these bones decay
Em B7
Run, run, run, run
C G G/F#
Run, run, run, run
Em B7
Run, run, run, run
