[E] It was a beautiful day, sun beat down, [D] I had the radio on, [E] I was driving, trees went by,
me and Del were singing, [D] a little runaway, [E] I was flying, [D] yeah [G] running [E] down a dream, that
[G] never would [A] come to me, [D] [G] working on a [E] mystery, [G] going [A] wherever it lead, [G] running [E] down a dream,
felt so good, like anything was possible, [D] get cruise control, and [E] rub my eyes,
the last three days, the rain was unstoppable, [D] it was always full, [E] no sunshine,
[D] [G] I'm running [E] down a dream, that [G] never would [A] come to me, [D] [G] working on [E] a mystery,
[G] going [A] wherever it lead, [G] running [E] down a dream,

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