[Em][D][C][D]
[Em][D][C][D]
[Em][D][C][D]

[Verse 1]
I [Em]keep on running
but I [D]can't get to the [C]mountain[D]
[Em]Behind me lie the [D]years that I mis[C]spent
[D]
And [Em]I've been sinking
like a [D]flower in the [C]fountain
[D]When all the lov[Em]e I'm gonna nee[D]d
is heaven [C]sent[D]

[Pre-chorus 1]
Gonna [A]try my best to get there
But I [C]can't afford the bus fare
And the [D]storm that's rolling over
Man, it [A]makes me wanna [C]cry

[Chorus 1]
And [Em]I was to[D]ld
The [C]streets were paved with [D]gold
And there'd be no [Em]time for getting [D]old
when we were [C]young[D]
[Em]It's al[D]right, if you [C]dance with me [D]tonight
We'll fight the [Em]dying of the [D]light
and we'll catch the [C]sun[D]

[Interlude 1]

[Em][D][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Woke up sleeping on a [D]train
that was bound for [C]nowhere[D]
[Em]Echoes that I could [D]hear
were all my [C]own[D]
The [Em]world had turned
and [D]I'd become a [C]stranger
[D]And I'm tired of wat[Em]ching
all the [D]flowers turn to [C]stone[D]

[Pre-chorus 2]
'Cause I [A]tried my best to get there
But I [C]can't afford the bus fare
And the [D]storm that's rolling over
Man, it [A]makes me wanna cry
And the [C]cold against my shoulder
When it [D]comes on in the winter
And it [A]seems to last forever
And it [C]makes me wanna,
it makes [D]me wanna cry

[Chorus 2]
[Em](I) was [D]told
The [C]streets were paved with [D]gold
And there'd be no [Em]time for getting [D]old
when we were [C]young[D]
[Em]It's al[D]right, if you [C]dance with me [D]tonight
We'll fight the [Em]dying of the [D]light
and we'll catch the [C]sun[D]
