Hit The Ground Runnin' Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I drew my [D]very first breath
in a driving rain
Doing 90 miles an hour
on a westbound train
My [G]mama was a gypsy and my
daddy was a rambling [D]man
And I could hitch me a ride
before I learned to walk
I hear the wind and I heed the call
I [G]don't know where I'm going
but I'm getting there
as fast as I [A]can, yes I am, [C]you got[A]ta [D]hit your ground running,
[A]if you're gonna make time,
you gotta [D]push it to the limit, [A]take it to the red line,
[G]life is a highway, [A]if you're
going my way, [D]you better keep it up [G]to speed,
you better [D]hit your ground run[A]ning, if you're
If with [D]me
[G]Yeah, you gotta hit[D] the ground running
[A]If you're coming with me[D]
[G]Well, I'm a [D]high -rolling, hard -living,
good -timing man
Make no excuses for the way that I am
Gotta [G]get my legs all in
before the fat lady [D]sings
It makes me nervous when I try to sit
I like my candles with both ends lit
A [G]little hard headed, but if I learn one [A]thing I know,
I [C]know you [A]gotta [D]hit your ground and
run it
[A]If you're gonna make time
You better [D]push it to the limit
[A]Take it to the red line
[G]Life is a highway,
[A]if you're going my way
You [D]better keep it up [G]to speed
You better [D]hit your ground running
[A]If you're coming with me[D][G][A]
[C]You [D]gotta hit your ground running
[A]If you're gonna make time
You gotta [D]push it to the limit
And take it [A]on up to the red line
You see, [G]life is a highway
[A]If you're going my way
You better [D]keep it up to speed
[G]You better hit[D] your ground running
[A]If you're coming with me
[D]If you're coming [G]with me
You gotta [D]hit your ground running
[A]If you're coming wit[D]h me
I'll [G]tell you one more time
[D]Hit the ground running,
[A]if you're coming with me[D]
If you're gonna run with the big dogs,

[Outro 1]
you gotta get off the porch
[D]
