Album: The Old Record (1989-1992)
Written by Tim Armstrong and Joey Schaaf
Transcribed by Luke Knox (*)

attention, you noticed it was written by Tim Armstrong, of Rancid and
formerly of Operation Ivy, when he was called Lint. Anyway, it's not too
tough, here it is:


Intro riff: (* is when 2nd guitar comes in)
E-------------------------------------------------------|
B-------------------------------------------------------|
G-------------------------------------------------------|
D------4--------4-4-5-5-4-4-----------*3-3-2-2-----2----|
A--5-5---5--5-5------------------2-------------3-3---3--|
E----------------------------3-3---3--------------------|
Play this riff 2x, then go into verse:

    D   G
E---2---3----|
B---3---3----|
G---2---4----|
D-------5----|
A------------|
E------------|

Play the same D-G progression for the chorus, and lead guitar plays the
intro riff during each chorus.

Solo:
E----------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------|
G----------------------------------------------------|
D---------------4-5-4-----------5-5-4-4-----4-4-5-5--|
A----2-3-2-3--5-------5--(rest)---------5-5----------|
E--3-------------------------------------------------|
(con't.)
E-----------------|
B-----------------|
G-----------------|
D--4-4-----5-5-4--| (back to chorus, w/intro riff)
A------5-5--------|
E-----------------|

During last chorus, there is a key change, and the chords change to E-A:
    E   A
E---4---5---|
B---5---5---|
G---4---6---|
D-------7---|
A-----------|
E-----------|

Lyrics:
I keep on running but I'm starting to tire. I keep on moving cause my
mind's on fire. It's an uphill climb but my feet are getting heavy. I
keep on running cause I'm feeling ready
Keep on Running. . . .
I'm getting tired but I try to ignore it cause if I don't I'll be heading
for it. I know if I stop I'll be a dead man, the way it is for me, must
be in the plan.
Keep on Running. . . .
I keep on running cause I can't turn back. I've got no choice my body's
keeping track of the miles I've gone and the miles left to go. If I stop
now everyone will surely know.
Keep on Running. . . .
