Tom Petty, Running Down A Dream (1989)
Key: :[G#] (w: Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Mike Campell)
INTRO: [G#5]
VERSE 1:
[G#5] It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio
[F#5] on; I was
[G#5] driving
[G#5] Trees flew by, me and Del were singing
Little
[F#5] runaway, I was
[G#5] flying
CHORUS:
Yeah
[C#] running
[B] down a
[G#] dream
That
[G#] never would
[B] come to
[C#] me
[C#] Working on a
[B] myste-
[G#]-ry
Going wher-
[B]-ever it
[C#] leads
Running
[B] down a
[G#] dream
VERSE 2:
I
[G#5] felt so good like anything was possible
Hit
[F#5] cruise control and rubbed my
[G#5] eyes
[G#5] The last three days the rain was un-stoppable
It was
[F#5] always cold, no sun-
[G#5]-shine
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 3:
I
[G#5] rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the
[F#5] pedal down to make some
[G#5] time
[G#5] There's something good, waiting down this road
I'm
[F#5] picking up whatever's
[G#5] mine
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
