   It seems like yesterday,    but it was long ago.
C                      G
 Davey was lovely--the king of my nights,
D                               C                  
 there in the darkness with the radio, playing low. And
G                            G     Bm                        Bm
   the secrets that we shared,        mountains that we moved
C                     G
 Caught like wildfire out of control,
               C                                        D       D
till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove.

        [Em    D]                G        [Em           C]              G
And I remember what he said to me, how he swore that it never would end.
  [Em              D]     C        C                               D                D
I remember how he held me,o so tight.Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
 
    G                   Bm      C                               G
         Against the wind,         we were running against the wind.
                 [C        Bm ]            [Am      C ]        G     G   G   G
         We were young and strong, we were running against the wind.

G                             G    Bm                         Bm
  And the years rolled slowly past.    And I found myself alone.
C                         G
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends,
D                          C                   
  Found myself further and further from my home. And I 
 G                 G    Bm                          Bm
   guess I lost my way.    There were oh, so many roads.
      C                  G
I was living to run, and running to live,
      C                                  D            D
Never worrying about paying, or even how much I owed.
 
       [Em       D]                  G             [Em         C ]              G
 Movin' 8miles a minute for mons at a time,Breakin'all of the rules that would bend
     [Em       D]              C         C                         D               D
   I began to find myself just searching,   Searching for shelter again and again.

         G              Bm    C                                G
            Against the wind,   a little something against the wind.
           [C      Bm]          [Am      C ]         G   G   G  G
         I found myself seeking shelter against the wind.

   Well those drifter's days are past me now, I've got so much more to think about
  [Em     D]          C           C                  D              
      Deadlines and commitments;   what to leave in,  what to leave out.
                  
      G              Bm   C                                 G
         Against the wind,    I'm still running against the wind.
             [C    Bm]           [Am       C]         G      G  
         I'm older now but still running, against the wind.
                   [C     Bm]           Am      [Am  C]         C     C
         Well I'm,  older now and still running,    against the wind.
            G                         G       
Against the wind (I'm still running)
            C                                        C
Against the wind (I'm still running against the wind)
            G                           G
Against the wind (see the old man run)
            C                                       C
Against the wind (he'll be running against the wind)
            G                             G
Against the wind  (Let the cowboys ride)
            C                                        C
Against the wind (they'll be riding against the wind)
            G                         G
Against the wind (against the wind)
            C                             C
Against the wind (riding against the wind)
            G       G!
Against the wind.
