Runnin' Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Wher[C]e?
[Em]Why?[G]
[D]Mayday!
I [Em]told you, you are never gonna be here.
[C]Just stop now,
you're not gonna make it.
[G]That's right, get your shit,
run away again.
[D]Run, fucker, run.
Cause I'm so tired of run[Em]nin'
I that I've worn my soles out
To the point that my toes is out
To the point that I [C]can't look back
And even if I did, couldn't
see where I started out
Can't see home for [G]miles
Lost like another orphan child
I'm unagreeing cause
I'm supposed to smile
So I threw up for the [D]ones that
are down and out
Proud when I think there's gonna be
a spokesman now
But I'm still [Em]run nin', runnin',
and I don't know where
All I got to my name is one pair
I've laced up [C]trucks, five bucks
And a chip on my shoulder that's so
big that I cannot bear
I done lost my [G]friends, family,
and home for this
And for that I have lost my mind
Kept my [D]faith,
lost my direction
I'm just prayin'
that I haven't lost my time
[Em]I keep my head up with my
feet on the ground
[C]From the bottom so up is the only
bridge that I'm [G]go ing
Ready to face all that's in front of me now
[D]Cause I'm so tired of runnin[Em]g
I'm walking through the fire
cause there's no way around
[C]Moving in the same direction wherever
the wind is blow[G]ing
Ready to face all that's in front of me now
[D]Cause I'm so tired of running
[Em]When are you gonna stop running, huh?
[C]Face it, you're gonna end
up just like your father did
You don't [G]know how to fill these shoes
The whole world wants to [D]see you fail
And you're gonna let them
Cause I'm so tired of run[Em]ning
And I'm so tired of struggling
I'm so tired of hust[C]ling
I feel my heart filled with hate
I'm so tired of loving
[G]I was supposed to be great
I'm so tired of duck[D]ing
Tired of coming home from my job
Being fired for nothing
[Em]And shit, I'm tired
From the nights a motherfucker
took that ride
To make that [C]dream come alive
To wake up in the morning to
a nine to five
But I gotta [G]do it if I wanna survive
Because in the city where I'm from
It's either do or die
So choose it [D]wise
Because you could lose
it in the blink of an eye
Believing in the darkest times
That's proving
[Em]I,
I, I
Keep my head up with my
feet on the ground
[C]From the bottom so up is the only
place that I'm [G]go ing
Ready to face all that's
in front [D]of me now
Cause I'm so tired of run[Em]ning
I'm walking through the fire
Cause there's no way around
[C]Movin' in the same direction
Wherever the wind [G]is blowin'
Planning to face all that's
in front [D]of me now
Cause I'm so tired of runnin'
[Em]Runnin', I ain't runnin',
I ain't runnin' away
[C]Runnin', I ain't runnin',
I ain't runnin' away
[Em]Runnin', I [D]ain't runnin',
I ain't [G]runnin' away
[D]Runnin', I ain't runnin' away
Cause I'm so tired of runnin'
