Intro: Em D C 

Verse: 1 
Em            D             C 
 Rolling seas, endless roads heading into the sun 
Am         D 
 Big skies, bigger dreams, enough for everyone 
Em            D             C 
 I was brave, free of love, I wanted to travel alone 
Am            D 
 We were born in the light, I'm sorry I remembered it wrong 

Pre-Chorus: 1 
    C 
I'm sorry that I broke you down 
    D 
I'm sorry that I thought it through 
    C 
I'm sorry that I looked and ran 
  D 
I couldn't keep up good enough 

 
Am 
 You were there when I needed you 
C 
And without a word 
G 
 Stood at my back when I wanted you 
D 
Turned away when it hurt 
Am 
 You were there when I called for you 
C 
And I walked away 
     G 
I've run so far, but you're still on my mind 
       D                 Em 
You're still on my mind 

Verse: 2 
Em            D 
 The sun began to burn too bright 
C 
I saw myself in the light 
  Am                       D 
I opened the door and lost the dream 
And couldn't go back inside 
Em            D 
 I took a road that led nowhere 
  C 
I didn't know that then 
      Am 
But I made my choice 
         D 
Now I've gone too far to come back here again 

Pre-Chorus 2 
    C 
I'm sorry that I let you down 
    D 
I'm sorry that I lost the way 
    C 
I'm sorry that I died and then came alive 
  D 
I couldn't keep up 

 
Am 
 You were there when I needed you 
C 
And without a word 
G 
 Stood at my back when I wanted you 
D 
Turned away when it hurt 
Am 
 You were there when I called for you 
C 
And I walked away 
           G 
Well, I've run so far, you're still on my mind 
       D 
You're still on my mind 
Am 
 You were there when I needed you 
C 
And without a word 
G 
 Stood at my back when I wanted you 
D 
Turned away when it hurt 
Am 
 You were there when I called for you 
C 
And I walked away 
     G 
I've run so far, but you're still on my mind 
       D 
You're still on my mind
