[Intro] G

G
  It seems like yesterday
Bm
   but it was long ago
C                               G
  Janey was lovely; she was the queen of my nights
D                              C
There in the darkness with the radio, playing low
G
  And the secrets that we shared
Bm
  the mountains that we moved
C                    G
Caught like wildfire out of control
               C                                      D
till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove
        Em     D                G
And I remember what she said to me
        Em            C           G
How she swore that it never would end
        Em             D         C
I remember how she held me,  oh so tight
C                             D
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

G           Bm   C                            G
Against the wind. We were running against the wind
        C        Bm               Am7       C          G
We were young and strong, we were running against the wind

G
  And the years rolled slowly past
Bm
  And I found myself alone
C                               G
  Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
D                              C
I found myself further and further from my home
G
  And I guess I lost my way
Bm
  There were oh, so many roads
       C                 G
I was living to run, and running to live
       C                             D
Never worrying about paying, or even how much I owed
          Em     D                G
Runnin' 8 miles a minute for months at a time
         Em          C           G
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
   Em       D                C
I begin to find myself just searching
C                        D
Searching for shelter again and again

G           Bm   C                            G
Against the wind.   A little something against the wind
  C        Bm            Am7      C         G
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

            Em       D         G
Well those drifter's days are past me now
         Em       C            G
I've got so much more to think about
Em     D        C
  Deadlines and commitments
C                  D
What to leave in. What to leave out

G           Bm   C                              G
Against the wind. I'm still running against the wind
    C      Bm            Am7      C          G
I'm older now but still running against the wind

         C     Bm             Am7                 C
Well I'm older now and still running against the wind

( G  C )

Against the wind.  Against the wind.  Against the wind  -- still running
Against the wind -- I'm still running against the wind
Against the wind -- I'm still running
Against the wind -- I'm still running against the wind
Against the wind -- still running
Against the wind -- running against the wind -- running against the wind
Against the wind -- see the young man run
Against the wind -- watch the young man run
Against the wind -- watch the young man running
Against the wind -- he'll be running against the wind
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride
Against the wind -- Oooh
Against the wind -- let the cowboys ride
Against the wind -- they'll be riding again the wind
Against the wind -- against the wind
Against the wind -- riding against the wind
Against the wind -- against the wind
Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride -- against the wind
