Chords:
Am7: X02010
Bm (barre2): X13321
C: X32010
Cmaj9: X20010
D: XX0232
Em: 022000

[Intro/Bridge]
G
[Verse 1]
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. And the
G
Secrets that we shared
Bm
the mountains that we moved,
C G
Caught like wildfire out of control - Till there was
C D
nothin left to burn and nothin left to prove. And I re-
Em D G
member what she said to me. . . How she
Em C G
swore that it never would end. I re-
Em D C
member how she held me, oh so tight.
C D
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.
[Chorus]
G Bm C G
Against the wind. We were runnin against the wind. We were
C Cmaj9 Am7 C G
young and strong; we were runnin a-gainst the wind.
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
And the years rolled slowly past.
And I found myself alone.
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends.
I found myself further and further from my home. And I
Guess I lost my way.
There were oh, so many roads.
I was livin' to run, and runnin' to live,
Never worryin' about payin', or even how much I owed.
Runnin' 8 miles a minute for months at a time.
Breakin' all of the rules that would bend.
I begin to find myself just searchin'...
Searchin' for shelter again and again.
[Chorus 2]
(same as chorus 1)
Against the wind. A little somethin' against the wind.
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind.
[Verse 3]
(solo for 1st 2 stanzas of verse)
Well those drifter's days are past me now. I've got
so much more to think about.
Deadlines and commitments.
What to leave in, What to leave out.
[Chorus 3]
(same as chorus 1)
Against the wind. I'm still runnin' against the wind.
I'm older now but still runnin' against the wind.
[Outro]
C Cmaj9 Am7 C
Well I'm older now and still runnin' a-gainst the wind.
(alternate G & C to fade)
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.
