Fm
100 days, 2000 miles
    G#
To you I'd run through day and night
       Cm
We've got to finish what we started
      C#                   C/E
We've got a lot to rescue darling

My shirt is torn, these shoes are worn
My blood's been drawn but still I'm strong
I feel like I'm a force of nature
I guess that makes you my creator

Tryin'a stop a river when it wants to rise
Tryin'a stop a blaze of a burning fire
I'm a hurricane that ain't stopping, no no-no, oh

Chorus:
         C#
And I keep keep running
      Fm
I keep keep running
      D#                     C
I keep keep coming back for more, no no
C#
Keep running
      Fm
I keep keep running
      D#                     C    C/E
I keep keep coming back for more, no

I've got to tell you now - I've crossed the world
I've crossed through time
And giving up never crossed my mind

I feel like I'm a force of nature
I guess that makes you my creator

Tryin'a stop a river when it wants to rise
Tryin'a stop a blaze of a burning fire
I'm a hurricane that ain't stopping, no no-no, oh

Chorus

no, oh
Baby, I keep

Tryin'a stop a river when it wants to rise
Tryin'a stop a blaze of a burning fire
I'm a hurricane that ain't stopping, no no-no, oh, oh

Chorus:
And I keep, keep running
And I keep, keep running
And I keep, keep coming
No-no, oh
Keep running
And I keep, keep running (And I keep)
And I keep, keep coming

And I keep, keep running
And I keep, keep running
And I keep, keep coming
Back for more, oh no, I keep
Keep running
And I keep, keep running
And I keep, keep coming back for more
No, oh-oh, oh-oh
