Running Boy Tab par Mon RovÎa

Capo: 1st fret

Em            Am
  Even the trees shiver
                        G
When the wind passes through
              Am
Now I'm shivering too
                  G
At the thought of you
         Am                                G
In my mind's eye you're like a flower, daffodil
      D        Am                           G
But I can't pick you, rather let you sit still
        Am
Church bells and cooling choirs
               G
When I'm down low
     Am
My father calls on a higher power
                 G
Some lightening bolt
     Am
At times peace washed over me
                   G   D
But I didn't understand
          Am
Rather spend time with the vagabonds
                 G
I'm the ragged one
 
Pre-Chorus
Am  G                  D                 C     D
And ooh     where's the rest for the mind?.
Am   G                        C     D
Ooh     I'm closing my eyes
 
 
Chorus
G                                Em
Running boy someday you might dance again
G                        Em
Running boy you almost lost your chance
         C                                   Bm           
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot, I
                                         Am
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why.
             Bm           C   Em
Won't you tell them the truth?
 
 
Am
Packed up my bags
                     G
Headed down to oceanside
            Am
There's a warning sign
                            G
Where the river and sea collide
          Am
I can't trust the law
They got quotas
                 G
They nickel-and-dime
   Am                                 G     D
a ticket for the truth, no fine for a lie
 
 
Pre-Chorus
    Am   G                D            C  D
And ooh     where's the rest for the mind?
Am   G                  C     D
Ooh     I'm closing my eyes
 
 
Chorus
G                                   Em
Running boy someday you might dance again
G                                 Em
Running boy you almost lost your chance
            C                                 Bm                   
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot, I
                                          Am
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why
          Bm             C       Em
Won't you tell them the truth?
 
 
Chorus
G                                   Em
Running boy someday you might dance again
G                                 Em
Running boy you almost lost your chance
            C                                Bm                   
And the cops showed up but I didn't get shot, I
                                         Am
On the sidewalk with my mother pleading why.
             Bm          C       Em
Won't you tell them the truth?
