[Verse 1]
D G
In New York City, down in the West End
Bm
They know me better than all of my best friends
G
When I’m out of this town, I don’t need to pretend
[Verse 2]
D G
There’s a suitcase ready, right next to my bed
Bm
So don’t you tempt me, or I’ll be gone in 10
G
Wish it was so easy to forgive and forget
But I can,
[Chorus 1]
D
Now I feel like I’m running in place, feel like I’m running in place
Every familiar face is going nowhere
G
Feels like I’m running in place, yeah like I’m running in place
I’m tryna find an escape, I’m going nowhere
Bm
There’s not a reason to stay and there’s no time left to waste
G
If I could hop on a plane, then I’m already there
D
Instead of running, running, running in place (ah, ah, ah)
G
Running, running, running in place (ah, ah, ah)
Bm
Running, running, running in place (I’m running, run, running, running)
G
Running, running, running in place (I’m running, run, running, running)
G*
Running, running, running in place
[Verse 3]
D G
I hope you don’t mind, don’t take this personal
Bm
Let us see the light, at the end of this dark road
G
And I think I might, just leave here on my own
My own
[Chorus 2]
D
Now I feel like I’m running in place, feel like I’m running in place
Every familiar face is going nowhere
G
Feels like I’m running in place, yeah like I’m running in place
I’m tryna find an escape, I’m going nowhere
Bm
There’s not a reason to stay and there’s no time left to waste
G
If I could hop on a plane, then I’m already there

Instead of running, running, running in place (I’m running, run, running, running)
G
Running, running, running in place (I’m running, run, running, running)
Bm
Running, running, running in place
[Bridge]
I have got to get out, yeah I have got to get out
G
I have got to get out, so I gotta go right now
[Chorus]
D* D
Feel like I’m running in place, feel like I’m running in place
Every familiar face is going nowhere
G
Feels like I’m running in place, yeah like I’m running in place
I’m tryna find an escape, I’m going nowhere
Bm
There’s not a reason to stay and there’s no time left to waste
G
If I could hop on a plane, then I’m already there (I’m running, run, running, running)
