Am      G/B      C                G  F

[Verse 1]
Am                              G/B         C
When that blood runs warm with the warm red wine
   G                                F
I miss the life that I left behind
     Am                                 G/B            C
And when I hear the sound of the blackbird's cry
     G                             C
I know I left in the nick of time

[Verse 2]
    Am                        G/B         C
Well this road I'm on's gonna turn to sand
G                                F
And leave me lost in a far-off land

So let me ride the wind 'till I don't look back
G                          F      C
And forget the life that I almost had

[Pre-Chorus]
         F              C
If I wander 'till I die

May I know whose hand I'm in
        F               Am     
And if my home I'll never find
G        F       C
Then let me live again

[Chorus]
           C            F             G
The longer I run then the less that I find
         C          F            G
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
            C              F               G
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
           C    F   G
And losing again

           C            F             G
The longer I run then the less that I find
         C          F            G
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
            C              F               G
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
           Am           G/B   C     Am    G/B   C
And losing again

[Verse 3]
Tell my brother please not to look for me
I ain't the man that I used to be
But if my saviour comes could you let him know
I've gone away for to save my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
         F              C
If I wander 'till I die

May I know whose hand I'm in
        F               Am     
And if my home I'll never find
G        F       C
Then let me live again

[Chorus]
           C            F             G
The longer I run then the less that I find
         C          F            G
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
            C              F               G
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
           C    F   G
And losing again

           C            F             G
The longer I run then the less that I find
         C          F            G
Selling my soul for a nickel and dime
            C              F               G
Breaking my heart to keep singing these rhymes
           Am           G/B   C     Am    G/B   C
And losing again
