Against the Wind

-1  3     3    3 -3 -4
It seems like yesterday
<-2 -4 -4   -4  <4 -5 <4 -4
But it was long ago--------
 6 6   6  -5 -5  -5  -5  -5   -5   -5 -5   -4  
Janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
  4   4   4   -4  -4   -4  -3  3 3 3  3  2   2 -1
There in the darkness with the radio playing low-
-1  -1   3  3    3   -3   -4 
And the secrets that we shared
<-2  -4  -4    -4  <4 -5 <4 -4
The mountains that we moved---
  6     6  6   6  -5   -5  -5 -5 -4 -3 3 
Caught like a wildfire out of control---
 -4    -4  -4   4  4    4   4   4   -4  -4  -3   -3  -3 -4 -3
'Til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove
-4 -5 -5 6  6   -5  -5   -5  -5 -4 -3 3 
And I remember what she said to me-----
-4  -5    6    6   6   6 6    -5  -5
How she swore that it never would end
-4 -5 6 6   6   6   -5  -5 6  -5 -4 -3 3    
I remember how she held me oh so tight--
 4   4  4  4   4    4   -4 -4 -4 -3   -3   -3
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wind
 4  -5   6 -5   -5  -5  -4  -3 3   
We were runnin' against the wind
-4  -5    6   -5    -5    -4  -4   -4 3
We were young and strong, we were runnin'
 3  -3   3   3
Against the wind

-1   3      3     3 -3   -4
The years rolled slowly past
<-2 <-2  -4   -4 -4  <4 -5 <4 -4
And I-- found myself alone------
 6  6  6   6   -5  -5  -5   -5     -5  -5   -4
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
4   4   4  -4   -4 -4  -3   3   3   3   3 2 2 -1
I found myself further and further from my- home
-1 -1   3   3  3   -3 -4
And I guess I lost my way
 <-2   -4  -4 -4 -4 <4 -5 <4 -4
There were oh so many- roads---
-4 -5  6  6  6   6  -5   -5 -5  -5 -4 -3 3
I was living to run and running to live---
-4 -4   4  4    4 4   4  4  4  -4 -4 -3   -3 -3 -4 -3
Never worryied about paying or even- how much I owed-
-5 -5    6     6   6 -5 -5  -5    -5   -5 -5 -4 -3 3
Moving eight miles a minute for months at  a time---
 -4  -5   6  6   6    6    6    -5    -5
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
-4 -5 6 6   -5  -5  6   -4 -3 3
I began to find myself searching
  4   4    4   4  -4  -4 -4 -3  -3 -3
Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind
4  -5 6   -5   -5  -5  -4  -3   3
A little something against the wind
-5  6   -5  -5  -4 -4   -4  3
I found myself seeking shelter 
 3  -3   3   3
Against the wind

 -5   -5     6  6     -5  -5   -5  -5 -4 -3 3
Well those drifter's days are past me now----
 -4  -5  6   6    6   6    6   -5 -5
I've got so much more to think about
 6   -5   -5  6 -5 -4 -3 3
Deadlines and commitments-
 4   4    4   4    -4  -3  -3   -3
What to leave in, what to leave out

 -1 3   -3   -4
Against the wind
 4   -5    6 -5   -5  -5  -4  -3 3
I'm still runnin' against the wind
-5   6 -5 -5  -4   -4   -4  3
I'm older now but still runnin' 
 3  -3   3   3
Against the wind

 -4  -5   6 7  -5  -5   -5   -4 -3 
Well I'm older now and still runnin'
 3  -3   3   3
Against the wind

Against the wind
