Against The Wind
Ton : GEnglish
Couplet
GIt seems like yesterday, Bmbut it was long ago
CJaney was lovely; she was the Gqueen of my nights.
DThere in the darkness with the Cradio, playing low.
GAnd the secrets that we shared, Bm the mountains that we moved
CCaught like wildfire Gout of control
'Till there was Cnothing left to burn and Dnothing left to prove.
Pré-refrain
And I reEmmember what Dshe said to Gme, how she Emswore that it Cnever would Gend
I reEmmember how Dshe Cheld me, oh so tight.
CWish I didn't know now what I Ddidn't know then.
Refrain
GAgainst the Bmwind. C We were runnin' against the Gwind.
We were Cyoung and strong, we were Amrunnin' aCgainst the Gwind.
Couplet
GAnd the years rolled slowly past, Bm and I found myself alone.
CSurrounded by strangers I Gthought were my friends.
DI found myself further and furCther from my home.
GAnd I guess I lost my way, Bm there were oh, so many roads.
CI was living to run, and running Gto live,
Never Cworrying about paying, or Deven how much I owed.
Pré-refrain
Runnin' 8 Emmiles a Dminute for months at a Gtime, breaking Emall of the Crules that would Gbend
I beEmgin to find myDself just Csearching, searching for shelter Dagain and again.
Refrain
GAgainst the Bmwind. A Clittle something against the Gwind.
I Cfound myself seeking Amshelter aCgainst the Gwind.
Solo
Pont
Well those Emdrifter's Ddays are past me Gnow, I've got Emso much Dmore to think aGbout.
EmDeadDlines and commitCments, what to leave in, D What to leave out.
Refrain
GAgainst the Bmwind, C I'm still runnin' against the Gwind.
I'm olCder now but still Amrunnin' aCgainst the Gwind.
Well CI'm *older now and still Drunnin... against the Cwind.
Against the Gwind. Against the Cwind. Against the Gwind -- still runnin'.
Against the Cwind -- I'm still runnin' against the wind.
Against the Gwind -- I'm still runnin'. Against the wind -- I'm still runnin' against the wind.
Against the wind -- still runnin'.
Against the wind -- runnin' against the wind -- runnin' against the wind
Against the wind -- see the young man run. Against the wind -- watch the young man run.
Against the wind -- watch the young man runnin'.
Against the wind -- he'll be runnin' against the wind.
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride. Against the wind -- Oooh
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride. Against the wind -- they'll be riding against the wind.
Against the wind -- against the wind. Against the wind -- riding against the wind.
Against the wind -- against the wind.
Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride -- against the wind.
