Against The Wind

G G It seems like yesterday, Bm but it was long ago. C G Jenny was lovely; she was the queen of my nights, D C G there in the darkness with the radio, playing low. And the secrets that we shared, Bm the mountains that we moved C G Caught like wildfire out of control, D till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove. Em D G And I remember what she said to me, Em C G how she swore that it never would end. Em D C I remember how she held me, oh so tight. C D Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then. G Bm C G Against the wind, we were running against the wind. C Am C G We were young and strong, we were running against the wind. G And the years rolled slowly past. Bm And I found myself alone. C G Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends, D C G I found myself further and further from my home. And I guess I lost my way. Bm There were oh, so many roads. C G I was living to run, and running to live, D never worrying about paying, or even how much I owed. Em D G Runnin' 8 miles a minute for months at a time, Em C G breaking all of the rules that would bend. Em D C I begin to find myself just searching, D searching for shelter again and again. G Bm C G Against the wind, a little something against the wind. C Am C G I found myself seeking shelter against the wind. Em D G Well those drifter's days are past me now, Em C G I've got so much more to think about. Em D C Deadlines and commitments; D what to leave in, what to leave out. G Bm C Against the wind, G I'm still running against the wind. C Am C G I'm older now but still running against the wind. C Am C G Well, I'm older now but still running against the wind. C Against the wind G Against the wind C Against the wind (still running) G Against the wind (I m still running against the wind) C Against the wind (I m still running) G Against the wind (I m still running against the wind) C Against the wind (still running) G Against the wind (running against the wind, running against the wind) C Against the wind (see the young man run) G Against the wind (watch the young man run) C Against the wind (watch the young man running) G Against the wind (he ll be running against the wind) C Against the wind (let the cowboys ride) G Against the wind (ohhhhh) C Against the wind (let the cowboys ride) G Against the wind (they ll be riding against the wind) C Against the wind (against the wind) G Against the wind (riding against the wind) C Against the wind
