Midnight Runner

Intro 
F#m  D  A  E 



[Verso 1]
 
    F#m 
The city lights are shimmering 
       D 
On the river red, green and blue 
  A 
I see the towers pierce the clouds 
          E 
Like they know what Ive been through 

    F#m 
The streets are pretty empty 
        D 
And the air is cold and clean 
  A 
I feel my heart keep counting 
      E 
Every pound between the dreams 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
        F#m 
Im not running from my darkness 
        D 
Im not running from my pain 
         A 
Im just trying to find the person 
      E 
I was meant to be again 
 


[Refrão]
 
C#m  D              E 
     Im a midnight runner 
      F#m 
Under silver city skies 
C#m  D              E 
     With the water glimmering 
       F#m 
Like a mirror of my life 

C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Im a midnight runner 
         F#m            D 
With the cold air in my lungs 
C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Every mile is a promise 
      F#m                 D 
Every breath is what Ive won 
 


[Verso 2]
 
         F#m 
Past the glass and quiet windows 
         D 
Past the bridges and the rain 
    A 
The reflections run beside me 
          E 
Like they know why I came 

    F#m 
Im chasing something better 
    D 
Im leaving something gone 
       A 
By the time the morrow finds me 
        E 
Ill be further than I was 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
            F#m 
And Im not running for the glory 
        D 
Im not running to be seen 
         A 
Im just building something stronger 
       E 
Out of everything Ive been 
 


[Refrão]
 
C#m  D              E 
     Im a midnight runner 
      F#m 
Under silver city skies 
C#m  D              E 
     With the water shimmering 
       F#m 
Like a mirror of my life 

C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Im a midnight runner 
         F#m            D 
With the cold air in my lungs 
C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Every mile is a promise 
      F#m                 D 
Every breath is what Ive won 
 


[Ponte]
 
    Bm          E 
The river ran beside me 
    A             F#m 
The rain began to fall 
        Bm            E 
I could hear the city breathing 
        F#m           C#m 
Like it knew me after all 

Bm                E 
Red and green and blue light 
A                   F#m 
Shining through the rain 
  Bm           E 
I kept running harder 
       F#m        C#m 
Till I felt alive again  



[Refrão]

C#m  D              E 
     Im a midnight runner 
        F#m 
And the city knows my name 
C#m  D              E 
     I can feel the old me fading 
       F#m 
In the rhythm and the rain 

C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Im a midnight runner 
         F#m            D 
With the future in my lungs 
C#m  Bm/D           C#m7/E 
     Every mile is a promise 
      F#m                 D 
Every breath is what Ive won
