Intro A B A B
A
Abandoned and lamenting
B
The wasted days were spent running from ourselves
A
Aimlessly ramblin'
B
But hey man, at least we've got our health
A B
Oh, but it ain't enough just to be alive
A
We've gotta lean into the love a little
B
Before we die
F#m
So tell me what you need
A
You bring me to my knees
E
And I'm tired of running
B
I'm tired of moving life around
F#m
How do we deal with this?
A
Treat each day as the gift it is
E
I don't wanna be running
B
Until I'm underground
( A B )
A
So let's just forget the unforgiving presence of death
B
And live wild and free
A
Godless or not
B
You can't let the fear control your body
A
Like a great Canadian darkness
B
I will cover you
A
Nothing will harm us
B
I will protect you
F#m
So tell me what you need
A
You bring me to my knees
E
And I'm tired of running

I'm tired of moving life around
