[ E5 ]If you wanna run away
[ E5 ]You think you cannot stay
[ E5 ]It seems like the easiest way

But the [ G5 ]faster you ran, the [A]faster you?re back
At the [ E5 ]point where you started from

I said the [ G5 ]faster you ran, the [ A5 ]faster you?re back
At the [ A5 ]point where you started from

And you?ll be [ C5 ]running round in circles [ D5 ]
[ D5 ]Because the [ E5 ]world is round
If you don?t [ C5 ]turn around and face it [ D5 ]
You?ll spin [ G5 ]around like a merry-go- [ A5 ]round
And the[ C5 ] only way to break it[ D5 ]
You gotta break [ E5 ]free  [ C5 ] [ D5 ]
G?tta break [ E5 ]free

[ E5 ]So stop your running
[ E5 ]You won?t gain nothing
[ E5 ]You?ll lose your way instead

Because the[ G5 ] bright light of the sun?s[ A5 ] gonna be gone
And will be [ E5 ]rising up behind your head

So the [ G5 ]faster you ran, the [ A5 ]faster you?re back
At the [ A5 ]point where you started from

And you?ll be [ C5 ]running round in circles [ D5 ]
[ D5 ]Because the [ E5 ]world is round
If you don?t [ C5 ]turn around and face it [ D5 ]
You?ll spin [ G5 ]around like a merry-go- [ A5 ]round
And the[ C5 ] only way to break it[ D5 ]
You gotta break [ E5 ]free  [ C5 ] [ D5 ]
G?tta break [ E5 ]free
