[Verse]
Em                           C                        G                    D
Starting drinking early, back there on the road, somewhere out in Kansas or was it Idaho,
Em                                    C
Headed for a better town, that I don’t know its name, 
G                                          D
it don’t matter anyhow, to me they’re all the same

[Chorus]
C                             D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
          G                  D                  Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
    C                   D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
        G                          Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C              D         Em
I’m on this road, running

[Verse]
Em                                  C
I left that girl just standing there, somewhere down the line,
G                                          D
You’d think this pint of whiskey could erase her from my mind,
Em                                     C
I always thought that leaving was a simple thing to do, 
G                               D
But I’m still out here on the run from a love that once was true

[Chorus]
C                             D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
          G                  D                  Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
    C                   D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
        G                          Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C              D         Em
I’m on this road, running   
    
[Bridge]
         Am                         G
This chevy’s a rolling mile after mile, trying chase away the picture of my memory of her smile,
     Am                             C                                 D
A smile that never leads me, that will not go away so I grab another set of gears I run another day

[Chorus]
C                             D
I’m on this road a running, running way to fast,
          G                  D                  Em
Years of whiskey cars and women, trying to out run my past
    C                   D
A past I can’t out run, a past that never dies
        G                          Em
So I open up a bottle and drink a few more lies
C              D                   C                        D          G    C           D           Em
I’m on this road,                I’m on this old road,            I’m on this road      Running
