        A                             D
By the side of the tracks where the train goes by
 A                          D                   A  D
The wind and the rain will catch you, you will sigh
                   A
Deep in your heart
                    E                D
Then you'll come a-running to me ummmmm
                          A   D
You'll come a-running to me
      A    D
ummm yeah

Well you watch the train go 'round the bend
Play in dust and dream that it will never end
Deep in your heart
You'll come running to me, yeah yeah
You'll come a-running to me, alright

Chorus:
 A                D           A

D7                           A
With your hound dog by your side
D7                                A
And your arms stretched out open wide
D7                     A
I wanna keep you satisfied in the morning sun
E                             D
By my side, come on, come on run
       A  D  A          D
alright, hey! In the country

You kick the sand up with your heels
Think to yourself how good it feels
Put away all your walking shoes
Then you come running to me, hey yeah
Now you come running to me, mmm mmm

I said, hey, come a-running to me
Oh, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me
Oh, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me

Come on, come on run
(Hey, come a-running to me)
Wanna run, come on run
(Oh, come a-running to me)
Oh, come on run (Hey, yeah come a-running to me)
(Hey, yeah come a-running to me)
Come on, run to me

You gotta rainbow if you run to me
