Bm G D There's a lightning in your eyes I can't deny Bm G D Then there's me inside a sinking boat running out of time Bm G D Without you I'll never make it out alive Bm G D But I know yes I know we’ll be alright There's a devil in your smile, it's chasing me And every time I turn around, it's only gaining speed There's a moment when you finally realize There's no way you can change the rolling tide Bm A G But I know yes I know that I'll be fine Chorus: D This time I'm ready to run (RUN!) G Escape from this city and follow the sun D G D Cuz I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine G D A G I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night D This time I'm ready to run (RUN!) G Wherever you are is the place I belong D G D Cuz I wanna be free and I wanna be young G D I'll never look back now A Bm G D I'm ready to run Bm G D I'm ready to run There's a future in my life I can't foresee Unless, of course, I stay on course and keep you next to me There will always be the kind that criticize But I know, yes I know, we'll be alright Chorus C D This time I'm ready to run C Ready to run A I'll give everything that I got for your love Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  D  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
