[Verse 1]
The other [Em]kids called him Conejo
[A]'cause he was [Em]fast [E]on his [D]feet
And he was [E]quick with [Em]his fists
if he had trouble in the streets
[A]But when his old man wou[D]ld hit the bottle,
[Em]he'd kick Cone[E]jo's ass
So with a [Em]wounded heart Conejo
swore he'd out run his past
Run [G]Cone[A]jo [Em]Run
[D][Em][E][D][E]
[Em][D]
[Em]He boxed lightweight at the Olympic
down in dirty old L.A.
And he earned [E]his Golden [D]Gloves by [Em]put ting
sixteen fighters away
But the seventeenth one [E]nailed him
and blinded his left [Em]eye
So with busted fingers and a battered brain,
he kissed the ring [E]goodbye
[Em]Run [G]Conejo R[A]un,
[Em]Run Cone[G]jo R[A]un[Em][D]
[Em]Run through the [D]dark n[Em]ight
to the rising sun
Run [G]Cone[A]jo [E]Run[Em][G][A][D]

[Em][E][D][Em][D][E]
[A]He was sin[E]ging in a barroom on the
[Em]night that we crossed paths
We'd known each other all [E]our lives
[D]but final[E]ly met at las[Em]t
Then we ran these highways twenty years
fueled [E]by beer and nicot[Em]ine
From New York to No[E]gales
[Em]and every joint in between
Run [A]Conejo [E]Run[Em][E]
He [Em]told me his [E]life story,
[Em]his joys and his[E] regrets
From the hot streets of Tucson to
a cold pris[A]on in Que[Em]bec
From his ex- [F#]wives and old [D]lovers and
the [Em]promises they believed
To the daughter in Louisiana
that he never wanted to leave
Run Conejo Run
Run [G]Cone[A]jo Run[Em],
[E]Run[Em] Conejo R[A]un[Em]
Run through [E]the dark night
[Em]to the rising sun

Well, it's [Em]three hours past midnight
and I'm driving Interstate Ten
[E]A hundred mil[Em]es out[E] of El Pas[A]o and[E]
I'm think[A]ing of my [E]old friend
I [Em]know that I can't see you [D]but
I can [Em]feel you [E]by my side
[Em]So, light up a cig, Conejo,
and let's go for [E]another [G]rid[A]e[Em][D][E]

Run [E]through the dark night to
[Em]the rising s[E]un[Em]
Run [A]Conejo [Em]Run[E][Em]
