[G]
Seems like yesterday,
[Bm] but it was long ago.
[C] Janie was [G] lovely, she was the queen of my night.
[D] There in the darkness with [C] the radio, playing nowhere.
[G] And the secrets that we shared,
[Bm] mountains that we moved,
[C] caught like a [G] wildfire out of control
till [C] there was nothing left to burn and nothing [D] left to prove.
And [Em] I remember [D] what she [G] said to me,
how [Em] she swore that [C] it never would [G] end.
[Em] I remember how [D] she held me [C] oh so tight.
Wish I didn't know now [D] what I didn't know then.
[G] Against [Bm] the wind.
[C] We were running [G] against the wind.
[C] We were young [Bm] and strong.
We [Am] were running [C] [G] against the wind.
And the years rolled slowly past,
[Bm] and I found myself alone, [C] surrounded by strangers
[G] I thought were my friends.
[D] Found myself further [C] and further from my home.
And [G] I guess I lost my way.
[Bm] I rode so many roads.
I [C] was living to run [G] and running to live.
[C] Never worried about paying or [D] even how much I owed.
[Em] Moving eight [D] miles a minute for [G] months at a time,
[Em] breaking all of [C] the rules that [G] were then.
[Em] I [D] began to find [C] myself searching,
searching for shelter [D] again and again.
[G] Against [Bm] the wind.
[C] Little something [G] against the wind.
[C] I found [Bm] myself [Am] seeking shelter [C]
[G] against the wind.

Well, [Em] oh, the stripter's [D] days are [G] past me now.
[Em] I've got so much [C] more to think [G] about,
[Em] [D] deadlines and [C] commitments.
What to leave in,
[D] what to leave out.
[G] Against the [Bm] wind.
[C] I'm still running [G] against the wind.
[C] I'm [Bm] older now, [Am] but still running [C] [G] against the wind.
[C] Well, I'm older [Bm] now [D] and still running [C] against the wind.
Against [G] the wind.
Against [C] the wind.
I'm still running against [G] the wind.
I'm still running against the wind.
