Chorus:
E                       A
This is a short race, this is a short life
E                       A
Let's run, not walk, through this beautiful life
  E                   A
This is a good day, this is a good sign
E                         A
You've got green eyes and I've got sunrise

       E                 A
We're falling sideways, big lights freeways
 E                         A
Heart beats through me, through this beautiful life

                A
We're talking dreams maybe
       E                    F#
Let's run away to New York City
                A
We're talking dreams baby
                 E         F#
We'll cut the strings maybe
         A
Through rose-colored lenses
     E              F#
Try not to forget it
                A
We're talking dreams maybe
                E          F#
We're talking dreams baby, yeah
