Aaron West and The Roaring Twenties – Runnin Toward The Light chords

  [Intro] 
E F#m A E F#m A B


[Verse 1]
EI used to hate all my dad's old outlaw country bands
A                             BHe'd play me when I was young
E'Cause they'd lie through their teeth about the lives they lead
A                                  BWhen all I wanted were honest songs
ABut now they're anthems in the van
                                      C#mAnd we're screaming them out on the highway
BFor good luck
A In the bright blistering sun


[Chorus]
E        F#m         ARunnin' toward the light
BOn the shoulder of a dream
E         F#m       AI'm singing in my sleep
E        F#m        ARunnin' toward the light
BI stagger through the streets
E       F#m      AI sing it in my sleep

C#m B

[Verse 2]
 E                                                                BCream fights through truck-stop coffee here in the quiet purple dawn
 ELast night we played another highway bar, for the first time they sang along
 ASpray paint a '20' up on the over pass
 C#m                          B              ALike a blood pact for the drifters we've become

In the soft burgeoning sun


[Chorus]
E        F#m         ARunnin' toward the light
BOn the shoulder of a dream
E         F#m       AI'm singing in my sleep
E        F#m        ARunnin' toward the light
BI stagger through the streets
E       F#m      AI sing it in my sleep


[Bridge]
 B           C#mThis is for Rosa, and Catherine
    BAnd Mom and Dad
    AAnd this is for Robert, and Jesse
    BAnd the Thunderbird staff
    EI'm going to make you proud of me
    BI'm going to make you proud of me
    AI'm going to make you proud of me


[Chorus]
E        F#m         ARunnin' toward the light
BOn the shoulder of a dream
E         F#m       AI'm singing in my sleep
E        F#m        ARunnin' toward the light
BI stagger through the streets
E       F#m      AI sing it in my sleep
