It was a beautiful day, sun beat down, [D] I heard the radio walk, [E] I was driving, the trees went
by, me and Del were singing, [D] a little runaway, [E] I was blind.
[D] Yeah, running [E] down a dream, that [G] never would come to me, [D] working on a [E] mystery, [G] going wherever
it [A] leads, running [E] down a dream.
It felt so good, like anything was possible, [D] I could cruise control, and rub my [E] eyes, the
last three days, the rain was unstoppable, it was always cold, [E] no sunshine.
Yeah, running down a dream, that never would [A] come to me, working on a [E] mystery, going wherever
[A] it leads, running [E] down a dream.

[C] [D]
[E] I rolled up, the sky grew dark, [D] I put the pedal down, to make [E] some time, there's something
good, waiting down this road, [D] I'm picking up, [E] whatever's mine.
[D] I'm running down [E] a dream, that never would [A] come to me, [D] working on a [E] mystery, going wherever
[A] it leads, running [E] down a dream.
Yeah, running down a dream, that never would [A] come to me, working on a [E] mystery, going wherever
