Running Towards A Place

Am F Am F Am

[Verse 1]
                            F
Give me the eyes that I may see
                                       Am
The good in my people and the trouble in me
                             C   Em   F
Give me the hands that I may lift
                                       G
The weight of another who's starting to drift


[Chorus]
             Dm      C         F
And if we're running towards a place
            F    Am G
Where we'll walk as one
         Dm       C       F
Will the hardness of this life
    C  G
Be overcome?
     Em              F
If I lay with you in love
         G
Will you meet me there?
              Em                 F
And shake the lightning from the locks
          C     G
Of your unbound hair
                  Dm  C  F
Can two become one?

F Am G    Dm C F    Am


[Verse 2]
                          C  G  F
Give me a song that I may sing
                                       Am
That cuts like a canyon and rides on a wing
                            C  Em  F
And give a heart that I may stand

For what I believe in


[Chorus]
             Dm      C         F
And if we're running towards a place
            F    Am G
Where we'll walk as one
         Dm       C       F
Will the hardness of this life
    C  G
Be overcome?
     Em            F
If I walk the wild blue
         G
Will you meet me there?
              Em                 F
And shake the lightning from the locks
          C     G
Of your unbound hair
                  Dm  C  F
Can two become one?


[Instrumental]
F Am G    Dm C F


[Bridge]
                F
Can you see the world

In a grain of sand?
             C
Can you find heaven in a wildflower
                            F
Hold it in the palm of your hand?
              Am
The moment we met
             F
Burst like a star
         C
Onto the canvas of the skyline, purple and gold
F                                                Dm C F
We're in this together, I ain't never letting go


[Bridge]
F Am G


[Chorus]
              Dm      C         F
Because we're running towards a place
            F    Am G
Where we'll walk as one
        Dm      C       F
And the sadness of this life
         Am  G
Will be overcome
     Dm       C      F
If I lay with you in love
         F    Am G
Will you meet me there?
              Dm        C        F
And shake the lightning from the locks
          Am     G
Of your unbound hair
