An 89 year old man learned how to run
                                A        B
And as he passed me by, he said "come on, son!"
F#m
I really thought my bones weighted a ton
                           A       B
As I dragged them up and down the block
      E         A            D
Now a couple of weeks have passed
             B              F#m
Gone are the makings of a lazy man

F#m
When I saw the usher of change

Her flaming hair in slow-mo
A       B
Gliding past my window
F#m
I had to trace her down

"You look like a really nice guy
            A            B
But can you keep up with me?"
D
Away she ran

[CHORUS]
D         Bm           E
I'm doing everything I can
      A               D
To be half of a marathon man
           Bm              E
How many things can life conceal
             A                   D
Deep in the mist everything is unreal
         Bm             E
If you believe in me, I can
                A               D
Become your own half a marathon man
      Bm                F#m
I am half of a marathon man

Yea-yeah

F#m
Good morning, somebody kill me right now
                               A       B
I've never felt this kind of a burning cold
  F#m
I read it somewhere, running is like a drug
                                A       B
As for the second day I can say it is not
    E             A       D
It's bright white burning pain
 B
Bring it on, baby!

F#m
10 miles and I feel hellbent
                                A       B
I'm gonna make sure this rainbow has an end
F#m
I seem to have hit an invisible wall
                        A       B       E         A
Trying to find out if this here endless tunnel is really
D
A cave

[CHORUS]
D       Bm                E
So here I run between the fields
     A                  D
I am half of a marathon man
           Bm                  E
Follow the river down from the hills
         A                  D
If I can do it, then anyone can
        Bm               E
Now her eyes reflect my skies
              A              D
You can hear love in the 21 cries
    Bm                F#m
Of half of a marathon man

D                E                     F#m
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day,
                   A          E
It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

E                F#                    G#m
It's a beautiful day, it's a beautiful day,

It's so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
