Verse:

    E                       G A
I’m passing sleeping cities 
E                  G   A E                         G A
Fading by degrees, not believing all I see to be so

[2 measure break]
    E                    G A
I’m flying over backyards 
E                          G  A     E                              G A E
Country homes and ranches, watching life between the branches below

Chorus: 

         A                    A
And it’s hard to say, who you are these days
        A              A           E
But you run on anyway, don’t you baby

         G
You keep running for another place
   D                      E
To find that saving grace,       Don’t you baby

Verse:

    E                G A  E                      G
I’m moving on alone, over ground that no one owns  
A    E                  G   A  E
Past statues that atone for my sins
          E                     G A  E
There’s a guard on every door, and a drink on every floor 
G A  E                       G A
Over flowing with a thousand a men’s 

Chorus:  
Verse:
       E                     G  A    E                       G A 
You’re rolling up the carpet Of your fathers two-room mansion No 
E                      G  A  E
headroom for expansion no more 
              E                   G  A    E                    G  A   E
And there’s a corner of the floor They’re telling you is yours You’re confident 
        G  A   E
but not really sure

Chorus: 

*I like to hammer on the G-string 
 when playing the A-chord during the chorus

*And hammering on the E-chord 
 when I start the riff back over 



| *  Special note
| d  Down strum
| u  Up strum
| x  Mute note
