The Runner

	  		

             Em                 D 
Through the night, through the dawn 
             Em                D 
Behind you another runner is born 
            Em                  D 
Don't look back, you've been there 
         Em           D              C   
See the mist as your breath hits the air 


                  Em    D             Em    D 
And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some 
           Em                 D          Em     D 
Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum 


             Em                 D 
Through the night, through the dawn 
        Em                     D 
Behind you another runner is born 
           Em                 D 
Don't look back, you've been there 
         Em           D               C 
Feel the mist as your breath hits the air 


         Em             D          Em       D 
And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some 
          Em                 D           Em     D 
Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum 


C            D     Bm    C 
And you will run your time,  
           D     Bm         C 
a shooting star across the sky 
              D      Bm      Em 
And you will surely cross the line  

(to pass on the flame) 

         Em          D 
Sun come up, sun go down 
         Em             D            C 
Hear the beat, see the sweat on the ground 
            Em             D 
Watch your step, keep your cool 
            Em              D            C 
Though you can't see what's in front of you 

            Em                 D 
Through the night, through the dawn 
       Em                     D 
Behind you another runner is born 
           Em                 D 
Don't look back, you've been there 
        Em           D                C 
See the mist as your breath hits the air 


          Em            D          Em        D 
And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some 
           Em                 D         Em     D 
Still your heart beats in the moonlight like a drum 


C            D     Bm    C 
And you will run your time,  
           D     Bm         C 
a shooting star across the sky 
             D        Bm      Em 
And you will surely cross the line  



         Em             D          Em        D 
And it's underneath the moonlight, passing some

a shooting star across the sky

And you will surely cross the line
