Walt Gabbard – Runnin Standard tuning no capo
Em C G D Em C G D
[Verse]
Em C G D
Starting drinking early, back there on the road, somewhere out in Kansas or was it Idaho,
Em C
Headed for a better town, that I don’t know its name,
G D
it don’t matter anyhow, to me they’re all the same
[Chorus]
C D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
G D Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
C D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
G Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C D Em
I’m on this road, running
[Verse]
Em C
I left that girl just standing there, somewhere down the line,
G D
You’d think this pint of whiskey could erase her from my mind,
Em C
I always thought that leaving was a simple thing to do,
G D
But I’m still out here on the run from a love that once was true
[Chorus]
C D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
G D Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
C D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
G Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C D Em
I’m on this road, running
[Bridge]
Am G
This chevy’s a rolling mile after mile, trying chase away the picture of my memory of her smile,
Am C D
A smile that never leads me, that will not go away so I grab another set of gears I run another day
[Chorus]
C D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
G D Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
C D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
G Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C D C D G C D Em
I’m on this road, I’m on this old road, I’m on this road Running
