INTRO: Am
Oh, my child
C
Thirty years today
G
You came into my life
Am
And everything changed
There's one thing I tried to teach you
C
Girl, don't you waste your time
G
Come this September
Am
You'll be somebody's wife
G F
I won't paint a picture of what you want to see
Em Dm
Love is the harder times, take it from me
F C Am
I would run down the lane and into the night
F C Am
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly
F C Am
Run from my babies, asleep in their beds
F C Am
Run from my lover and my best friend
G
And back again
INSTRUMENTAL: Am C G Am
And all of the courage
C
I tried so hard to hold on to
G
Ever since that day
Am
You and your brother left for school
They say, just over that hill
C
The fog rolled in
G
And, "Come quick doctor
Am
We think somebody's been killed"
G F
And I have been a healer of other people's pain
Em Dm
Yeah, I know sometimes you don't like the ways I've changed
F C Am
But the smell of the world came into my lungs
F C Am
The sound of the gravel when my legs went numb
F C Am
And my heart nearly burst right out of my chest
F C Am
It felt so good to know I wasn't dead
F C Am
I would run down the lane and into the night
F C Am
Run so fast, I swear my feet would fly
F C Am
Run from my babies, asleep in their beds
F C Am
Run from my lover and my best friend
G
Back again
Am
Back again
