[Verso 1]

Em 
Hey, now, everybody crowd 'round 
Em 
Something you should know 
Em 
Fast break, always a mistake when you…got…nowhere to go 
Em      C                 C 
You…can lie for the honey, lie…for the wealth 
         C                                                    Em 
You can lie to each other but you better never lie to yourself 
  

[Verso 2]

Em 
No sign of any second mind 
Em 
What she had, she gave 
Em 
Red hand with another man 
Em 
There is no one here to save 
Em   C 
She started out like most of them: 
C                                           Em 
Heart full of dreams, a head full of nothing 
  

[Refrão]

Em      C                              Em 
If you run, you better have a place to go 
Em      C 
If you run, ooh 
Em 
Run, run, run, run, run 
Em 
Run, run, run, run, run 
  

[Verso 3]

Em 
Hang tight, she running through the moonlight 
Em 
Waiting on her charms 
Em 
Deep scars fading in the stars 
Em 
Fading in each other's arms 
Em   C 
He took her down to his hiding place 
C                                         Em 
All he's bringing back is dust on his face 
  

[Verso 4]

Em 
Stone's throw, tapping at the window 
Em 
Fools with no plans 
Em 
Slow wind, broken by design 
Em 
Be good or be goddamned 
Em   C 
You think you left it all behind? 
       C                             C                     Em 
You're choking on the weeds, you're strung out on the vine 
  

[Refrão]

Em     C  B                             Em 
If you run, you better have a place to go 
  
Solo: D  G  A 
       Bm  A  G  F# 
       Em  D  G  A 
       Bm  A  G  F# 
       Em  D  G  A 
       Bm  A  G  F# 
       Em  D  G  A 
       B  A  G  B 
  

[Verso 5]

Em 
New age, burning of a page 
Em 
A brand new dream to sell 
Em 
Ain't far from who you really are 
Em 
And it's just as well 
Em   C                      C 
You lie for the honey, you lie for the wealth 
     C                   C                        Em 
You lie to each other, ain't gonna lie to myself 
  

[Refrão]

Em      C           Bm 
If you run, if you run 
        C                             Em 
If you run, you gotta have a place to go
