Em                C
I move as fast as I can
D               G B
I like to get around
Em                C
I'm crazy like a madman
D              C          A
My feet don't touch the ground
Em                  C
I move amongst the nightlife
D                    G B
And they just step aside
Em                        C
Because when they see me coming
D                      Em
They know I'm running wild

Dead or alive there's nothing
That bothers me at all
I take on all comers
They back off or they fall
They raise their hands to stop me
I laugh and I defy
Because what's the point in living
Unless you're living wild

Am
No chains can hold me down
I always breakaway
I never hear society
Tell me what to do or say
   Am        B          C      D
I taste the life that pleases me
     Am       B       C        D       Em
And raise a storm for all the world to see

I never stumble, never fall
Never stop for rest
I rebel but I walk tall
And I demand respect
I move amongst the nightlife
And they just step aside
Because when they see me coming
They know I'm running wild

I'm running wild
I'm running wild
Get out of my way
I'm running wild
I'm running wild
You better believe it
Wild...
