Intro
D G Fsus4 D G Fsus4 D Fsus4 D
(Verse 1)
[D]
And I see papers and papers
[F]
Stacked up information
[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] F D
Your deepest desire
(Verse 2)
D
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
D G Fsus4 D G Fsus4 D Fsus4 D
(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 w***es
[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
