Key: :[C#] (w: Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Mike Campell)

INTRO: [C#5]

VERSE 1:
[C#5] It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio [B5] on; I was [C#5] driving
[C#5] Trees flew by, me and Del were singing
Little [B5] runaway, I was [C#5] flying

CHORUS:
Yeah [F#] running [E] down a [C#] dream
That [C#] never would [E] come to [F#] me
[F#] Working on a [E] myste-[C#]-ry
Going wher-[E]-ever it [F#] leads
Running [E] down a [C#] dream

VERSE 2:
I [C#5] felt so good like anything was possible
Hit [B5] cruise control and rubbed my [C#5] eyes
[C#5] The last three days the rain was un-stoppable
It was [B5] always cold, no sun-[C#5]-shine

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
I [C#5] rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the [B5] pedal down to make some [C#5] time
[C#5] There's something good, waiting down this road
I'm [B5] picking up whatever's [C#5] mine

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
