Aaron Johnson - Running

[Verso 1]
 
G Am C G 

G 
The world keeps getting faster 
Am 
So I tighten up my shoes 
C 
I keep an eye on the doorway 
G 
Like theres something I might lose 

G 
I dont trust the quiet 
Am 
I dont like an easy chair 
C 
Comfort feels like falling 
G 
Like Im losing ground somewhere 
 


[Refrão]
 
G 
I dont want to stop running 
Am 
I just want to know what for 
C 
I dont want to kill the hunger 
G 
I just dont want it keeping score 

G 
Maybe I can chase what matters 
Am 
and stop running from my fear 
C 
Maybe I can keep on moving 
G 
And still love being here 

G 
Staying here... 
Am 
Staying here... 
C 
Staying here... 
G 
Staying here... 
 


[Verso 2]
 
G 
I call it getting better 
Am 
I call it staying strong 
C 
I call it doing what a man does 
G 
When the road gets hard and long 

G 
But sometimes in the mirror 
Am 
When the morning light comes in 
C 
I see a man whos moving forward 
G 
Like somethings chasing him

I dont want to stop running

G 
I just dont want it keeping score 

G 
Maybe I can chase what matters 
Am 
and stop running from my fear 
C 
Maybe I can keep on moving 
G 
And still love being here 

G 
Staying here... 
Am 
Staying here... 
C 
Staying here... 
G 
Staying here... 
 


[Ponte]
 
Am                D 
Maybe peace is not surrender 
Am                D 
Maybe rest is not defeat 
Am                   C 
Maybe I can lay this burden down 
         D 
And still land on my feet
