F    Em     C
So what of you?
     Dm      Am
The fateful few
       A#        Am
Should take them all
   Em       F
Government fall
F   Em        C   Dm      Am
So tell your family and friends
      A#       Am
We'll keep it plain
  Em    F
Never again

Chorus:
              F              Dm  Am
Well, if you can't walk then run
             Em               F
Well, if you can't walk then run
           Dm Am
Walk then run
              Em
Well, if you can't walk then...
        F               Dm Am
If you can't walk then run
              Em              F
Well, if you can't walk then run
           Dm Am
Walk then run
              Em
Well, if you can't walk...

I'll make it clear, you'll make it then
But never here, never again (na-na-na)
So which one hangs police with gangs?
It's all the same, it's all the same
I met you here, but then you ran
You ran with fear, you fearless man (na-na-na)
So tell your violent and tame
That they will cry never again

F     Dm Am
Ooooooh
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
Em     F Dm Am

Isombard
(Well, if you can't walk then run)
(Walk and run)
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
(Well, if you can't walk then...)
(If you can't walk then run)
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
(Well, if you can't walk then run)
(Walk then run)
Em     F Dm Am
Isombard
(Well, if you can't walk...)

Chorus:
Well, if you can't walk and run
Well, if you can't walk then run
Walk then run
Well, if you can't walk then...
If you can't walk then run
Well, if you can't walk then run
Walk then run
Well, if you can't walk...

(Ooh) Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't
Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't (Isombard)
(Ooh) Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't
Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't (Isombard)
(Ooh) Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't
Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't (Isombard)
(Ooh) Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't
Run
If you can't, if you can't, if you can't (Isombard)
