D
I was born the running kind leaving always on my mind
G
Home was never home to me at anytime
A7
Every front door found me hoping I would find the back door open
D
There just had to be an exit for the running kind
Within me there's a prison surrounding me alone
G
As real as any dungeon with a wall of stone
A7
I know running's not the answer but running's been my nature
D
And a part of me that keeps me moving on
I was born the running kind leaving always on my mind
G
Home was never home to me at anytime
A7
Every front door found me hoping I would find the back door open
D
There just had to be an exit for the running kind
D G A7
Down every road there's always one more city
G A7 D
I'm on the run the highway is my home
G A7
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
G A7 D
While Mama used to pray my crops would fail
G A7
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways
G A7 D
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail
G A7
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me
G A7
A fugitive must be a rolling stone
D G A7
Down every road there's always one more city
G A7 D
I'm on the run the highway is my home
G A7
I'm lonely but I can't afford the luxury
G A7 D
Of having one I love to come along
G A7
She'd only slow me down and they'd catch up with me
G A7 D
For he who travels fastest goes alone
