Pré-refrain

And hit the ground
Running as D#mfast as F#he could
Without making a sound
His G#mfeet were flying through dirt and mud
Each D#mstep F#propelled by a rush of blood

D#m A#Well A#he's been running away
Ever F#since C#the day
He dropped Bmaj7out of school B A#7
He never did what they
D#m7Told him he should
He just F#was C#no good
At Bmaj7following rules B A#7
Pré-refrain
But he G#mlearned how to get
What he wanted alright
By D#musing a F#gun and a switchblade knife
He'd G#mstart a fight and kill on a whim
And D#mtake F#your life like it belonged to him
Refrain
And he Balways D#mthought A#
If he G#mever did D#mget F#caught Fm7(b5)
He'd A#7make Dit out alive

Oh D#m A#when A#the G#mcops came around
They put him under arrest
D#m But F#he couldn't care less
He didn't even A#blink
When they threw him
Against the wall
He didn't D#mthink A#he did
Anything wrong at all
So they G#mlocked him up
And they put him away
But he D#mknew F#that he was
Gonna escape one day
And A#so he did
And ever since then
They D#mtried A#
But they never saw
His face again
