[Guitar Intro]

C G C G C G Em Em C(5) G/B D7 
 
 
[Verse]

C                  G            C               G     
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels 
C                   G                     C                  G 
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields 
C                   G             C               G 
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up 1-0-1 
C(5)                   G/B                   D7       
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on 
 
 
[Refrain]

        C               G 
Running on - running on empty 
        C            G 
Running on - running blind 
C                G  
Running into the sun 
                  Em  
But I'm running behind 
 
 
[Verse]

C                 G                          C       G  
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive 
C                 G                    C        G 
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive 
C                    G               C                  G  
In sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my own 
C(5)                   G/B                   D7       
I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on 


[Refrain]

        C               G 
Running on - running on empty 
        C            G 
Running on - running blind 
C                G  
Running into the sun 
                  Em  
But I'm running behind 


[Solo]
 

[Bridge]
 
Em         C     D7           G    
Everyone I know, everywhere I go 
Em               D7        C 
People need some reason to believe 
                   G 
I don't know about anyone but me 
Em              C      D7/A           G    
If it takes all night, that'll be all right 
C                   D7             C(5) G/B D/A G Em G/D 
If I can get you to smile before I leave 
 
 
[Verse]
 
C                  G                     C       G  
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels 
C                   G                     C               G  
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels 
C                     G                      C                  G  
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through 
C(5)               G/B             D7/A       
Looking into their eyes I see them running too 
 

[Refrain]

        C               G 
Running on - running on empty 
        C            G 
Running on - running blind 
C                G  
Running into the sun 
                  Em  
But I'm running behind 
 
 
[Verse]

C                G                      
Honey you really tempt me 
             C               G  
You know the way you look so kind 
C                   D7/A                   C(5) G/B D/A G Em G/D  
I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind,  
         C                          
Running on- 
                      D7/A                    C(5) G/B D/A G Em G/D   
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find 
        C                        D7/A                  C(5) G/B D/A G  
Running blind - Running into the sun but I'm running behind
