against the wind

Tom : G
[Intro] G
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
There in the darkness with the radio, playing low
G
And the secrets that we shared
Bm
the mountains that we moved
C G
Caught like wildfire out of control
C D
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
G Bm C G
Against the wind. We were running against the wind
C Bm Am7 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
I found myself further and further from my home
G
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
C D
Searching for shelter again and again
G Bm C G
Against the wind. A little something against the wind
C Bm Am7 C G
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind
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
C D
What to leave in. What to leave out
G Bm C G
Against the wind. I'm still running against the wind
C Bm Am7 C G
I'm older now but still running against the wind
C Bm Am7 C
Well I'm older now and still running against the wind
( G C )
Against the wind. Against the wind. Against the wind -- still running
Against the wind -- I'm still running against the wind
Against the wind -- I'm still running
Against the wind -- I'm still running against the wind
Against the wind -- still running
Against the wind -- running against the wind -- running against the wind
Against the wind -- see the young man run
Against the wind -- watch the young man run
Against the wind -- watch the young man running
Against the wind -- he'll be running against the wind
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride
Against the wind -- Oooh
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride
Against the wind -- they'll be riding again the wind
Against the wind -- against the wind
Against the wind -- riding against the wind
Against the wind -- against the wind
Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride -- against the wind
