D
I was running crazy, I was running wild.
G
Living on the edge, yeah I was living in the skies.
C G
My hands starts shaking like the streets of Hollywood.
D
My mind was wasted, I still did the best I could.

Riding in the back of a black limousine.
C G
I used to stare at the sun, and ask for God to please guide me.
D
In the right direction.
D
I didn't know where I was going.
G
I didn’t know where I was gonna stay.
C G
All I knew is that I was going far far away.
Em G
And it still feels like yesterday, when he says...

Run baby run, cross New York City

Run baby run, to the streets of L.A.
D5 C5
Run baby run, yeah you can't slow down.

I left each town with a wink and a kiss.
