[A]
[F#m]
[A] This smoke down by the river, yeah the cannon [F#m] and the drums.
I've got [A] one thing to ask you honey, can [F#m] you run?
You [A] know I hate to ask so late, but the [F#m] moment's finally come.
[A] And there won't be time to change your mind, [F#m]
can you run?
[C#m] Can you run to the [F#m] freedom [A] line of the Lincoln [E] soldiers?
[A] Where a [C#m] country [F#m] band can't be a man [D] with a [A] musket on his [E] shoulders.
[F#m] I've got to stand [A] up tall before I'm done, wrap these hands of mine [D] around a gun.

Chase the taste of bondage from [D] my tongue.
Can [F#m] you run?
