Standard Tuning in D

(Verse 1)

D
And I see papers and papers
F
Stacked up in formation
C
That mean much before
G
They're lining the fire

D
As the bottomless heat goes
F
To harness your anger
C
Your blood and
G                 D
Your deepest desire

(Verse 2)

Because there's no truth stolen
F
That's been ever brought forward
C
By the minds of the writers
G
Looking face down on the gutter

D
Cause this world's full of thinkers
F
And suffragette speakers
C                                  G
Who deny that they ever wear a dress
                                    D
Oh, this god forsaken town is in a mess

(Chorus)

D
And all the truths been let out loose
F
Is desperate to amuse
C
As it grabs you by the throat
G
And strings out all the times you've used

D
But now you don't belong
F
You whisper when you speak
C
You turn yourself to nighttime
G                          D
You're trying to find your feet

           C
So let me run, Lord
              G
Lord, Lord, Lord

Run...
                    D
Lord, just let me run
            C
So let me run, Lord
               G
Lord, Lord, Lord
                    D
Lord, just let me run

Riff

(Verse 3)

D
But as the morning awakens
F
That light sends a shudder
C
The twist of hope that helped you down
G
Is left to rest and stir

D
You back down a hallway
F
To flourish the darkness
C
And fool yourself
                     G
You did it all for her
                 D           
And him , and her

(Chorus)
D
And all the truths been let out loose
F
Is desperate to amuse
C
As it grabs you by the throat
G
And strings out all the times you've used

D
But now you don't belong
F
You whisper when you speak
C
You turn yourself to nighttime
G                          D
You're trying to find your feet


           C
So let me run, Lord
              G
Lord, Lord, Lord

Run...
                    D
Lord, just let me run
            C
So let me run, Lord
               G
Lord, Lord, Lord
                    D
Lord, just let me run

Outro

D
But I've seen your face before
F
Rich boy playing poor
C
Ravaging the whores
G
Ignoring constant calls

D
Now you don't belong
F
You whisper when you speak
C
You turn yourself to nighttime
G
You're trying to find your feet


          C
So let me run, Lord
              G
Lord, Lord, Lord

Run...
                    D
Lord, just let me run
            C
So let me run, Lord
               G
Lord, Lord, Lord
                    D
Lord, just let me run
