Runnin' With the Wind
Dayton Waters
Bb (Capo to 3d Fret and play in G)


[Verse]

G                                 C                                D                                G                              
She said she didn't like the person I'd become
           C                                D                                            G                                        C
And all this time I thought it was that I hadn't become anyone
                     Am                                        Am/G                        D
Goes to show I don't know where endings begin
                     C                                              D                                                           CaddD           G
It was a good time for me to find myself runnin with the wind

[Chorus]

             C                                                                            D                        G
With one hand on the throttle and the other on a beer
                 C                                                                                  Em                D
I don't care where I wind up as long as it's far from here
         C                           D                                                        G                                        C
And if I have to put her down well that's how it all should end
             Am                                        Am/G  D                                          CaddD             G
In the meantime you can find me runnin with the wind

[Verse]

I met a young girl at a bar in Abilene

She asked about my cologne and I said "Leather and Gasoline"

Then she asked me for a ride through a sideways grin

Next thing I knew it was just us two runnin with the wind

[Chorus]

I had one had on the throttle and the other on her knee

She said she fin'ly found where she belonged and it was sittin right next to me

But she turned out to be like all good things that have to end

And I found myself right back where I began runnin with the wind

[Verse]

It happened late one night on a road called Canyon Way

I'd been ridin much too hard and much too long for too many days

I went straight where the road chose to bend

So the next time you hear that thunder think of me runnin with the wind

[Chorus]

With one hand on the throttle and the other on a beer

I don't care where I wind up long as its far away from here

But since I had to put her down remeber this my friend

When you hear that rollin thunder it's just me runnin with the wind

When you hear that rollin thunder it's just me runnin with the wind
