[Verse 1]
[D]It's been years since
they told her [Em]about it
The [G]darkness her body pos[D]sessed
And the scars are still there
in the mir[Em]ror
Every[G]day that she gets
herself [A]dressed
Though the [Bm]pain is miles
and miles be[F#m]hind her
And the [G]fear is now a docile [A]beast
If you [G]ask her why she is still running
She'll [A]tell you it makes her complete
[D]I r[A]un for

[Verse 2]
[D]hope
I run [A]to feel
I run for [Bm]the truth, for all [A]that is [G]real
I run for your [D]mother, your sister, your [A]wife
I run for [Bm]you and me my [G]friend
I run for life
[D]

[Verse 3]
It's a blur since they told me [Em]about it
How the [G]darkness had taken its [D]toll
And they cut into my skin
[Esus4]And they cut into my body
[Em]But they will [G]never get a piece of my [A]soul
And [Bm]now I'm still learning the les[F#m]son
To [G]awake when I hear [A]the call
And if you [G]ask me why I am still running
I'll [A]tell you I run for us all

[Verse 4]
I run for [D]hope
I run [A]to feel
I run for [Bm]the truth, for all [A]that is [G]real
I run for your [D]mother, your sister, your [A]wife
I run for [Bm]you and me m[A]y [G]friend
I run [D]for life

[Verse 5]
[G]An [Bm]d som[Em]eday[G][D]
if they tell you [Em]about it
If the [G]darkness knocks on your [D]door
Remember her
[Em]Remember me
[G]We will be running as we have before
Running for answers
[A]Running for [Em]more[A]
[G]I r[A]un for

[Verse 6]
[D]hope
I run [A]to feel
I run for the [Bm]truth, for all [A]that is [G]real
I run for your [D]mother, your sister, your [A]wife
I run for [Bm]you and me my [A]friend[G]
I run for life

[Verse 7]
I run for [D]hope
I run [A]to feel
I run for the [Bm]truth, for all [A]that is [G]real
I run for your [D]mother, your sister,
your [A]daughter, your wife
[Bm]For you and me [A]my [G]friend
I [D]run [A]for[Bm] life[A][G]

[Verse 8]
I run for [D]your mother, your sister, your [A]wife
I run for [Bm]you and me my [A]friend[G]
I run [D]for life
