If You Run

Em 
Hey, now, everybody crowd 'round 
Em 
Something you should know 
Em 
Fast break, always a mistake when you…got…nowhere to go 
Em      C                 C 
You…can lie for the honey, lie…for the wealth 
         C                                                    Em 
You can lie to each other but you better never lie to yourself 
  

Em 
No sign of any second mind 
Em 
What she had, she gave 
Em 
Red hand with another man 
Em 
There is no one here to save 
Em   C 
She started out like most of them: 
C                                           Em 
Heart full of dreams, a head full of nothing 
  

Em      C                              Em 
If you run, you better have a place to go 
Em      C 
If you run, ooh 
Em 
Run, run, run, run, run 
Em 
Run, run, run, run, run 
  

Em 
Hang tight, she running through the moonlight 
Em 
Waiting on her charms 
Em 
Deep scars fading in the stars 
Em 
Fading in each other's arms 
Em   C 
He took her down to his hiding place 
C                                         Em 
All he's bringing back is dust on his face 
  

Em 
Stone's throw, tapping at the window 
Em 
Fools with no plans 
Em 
Slow wind, broken by design 
Em 
Be good or be goddamned 
Em   C 
You think you left it all behind? 
       C                             C                     Em 
You're choking on the weeds, you're strung out on the vine 
  

Em     C  B                             Em 
If you run, you better have a place to go

Em 
New age, burning of a page 
Em 
A brand new dream to sell 
Em 
Ain't far from who you really are 
Em 
And it's just as well 
Em   C                      C 
You lie for the honey, you lie for the wealth 
     C                   C                        Em 
You lie to each other, ain't gonna lie to myself 
  

Em      C           Bm 
If you run, if you run 
        C                             Em 
If you run, you gotta have a place to go
