A                                                     D
Contessa, Contessa, oh please leave your hat by the door
A                                                    D
Well, I thought I told you you couldn?t call round anymore
A                                                             D
And outside in the street and the rains turning tricks on the day
A                                             D
Contessa, I?ve told you so why do you come anyway?


A                                                    D
Well, ten years ago by the motorway bridge with a smile
A                                                         D
And your red lacquer shoes, oh you lived inside me for a while
A                                                       D
I had an old cow bone that I used to draw hearts in the dust
A                                                      D
Contessa please tell me just what the hell happened to us


            E
?Cause I?ve gone
      D          A
Gone run that road
     E
I?ve gone
    D           A
Gone run that road
        E        D        A
Run that road home


A                                                            D
I was a scared little kid with a head full of hormones and holes
A                                                   D
With one eye on atonement and a body already grown old
A                                                             D
There you were with your secrets and your notebook of genuine lies
        A                                               D
Saying ?girl its your party but you sure as hell don?t wanna cry, don?t wanna cry


     E
I?ve gone
    D          A
Gone run that road
     E
I?ve gone
    D           A
Gone run that road
        E       D      A
Run that road home

Yeah, run that road home


A                                                   D
So I was the black sheep, yeah, I was the lone cavalier
A                                                    D
But with a face like stone, oh Connie its lonely out here
A                                                        D
I?ve taken some pills and I?ve played with the hand I was dealt
A                                                          D
And you saved me that time but now I?ve learned to save myself


         E
And I?ve gone
     D        A
Gone run that road
     E
I?ve gone
       D         A
Gone run that road

Run that road home

Oh, run that road home

Yeah, run that, run that, rung that, run that, road home

Yeah, run that road home
