E 
Your words alone 
                               A 
Could drive me to a thousand tears 
E 
All the same words 
                                A 
That kept me here for all the years 

(C#m or E) 
I?m lost again, it?s happening 
When you?re around I just go weak 
             A 
All I wanna know, is it mutual 
Then I never want to leave 
(C#m or E) 
Then I?m ready to run, ready to fall 
Think I?m ready to lose it all 
                       A 
And I?m ready to run, ready to fall 
              B 
Think I?m ready to lose it all 

C#m 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
A                               B 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
C#m 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
A                                B 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
You keep me.. 

Keep me running 
Oooh.. 

Ohh, would you hold my hand like the air was so gently here 
Never give up, never give up 
Ohh, would you pull me close so nobody knows we?re there 
No one can find us 

I?m lost again, it?s happening 
When you?re around I just go weak 
All I wanna know, is it mutual 
Then I never want to leave 
Then I?m ready to run, ready to fall 
Think I?m ready to lose it all 
And I?m ready to run, ready to fall 
Think I?m ready to lose it all 

Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
You keep me.. 

Keep me running 
Keep me running 
Keep me running 

And I?m lost again, it keeps happening 
But when I?m around you, when I?m around you 
I just go weak 
All I wanna know, is it mutual 
Am I?m ready to run, am I ready to fall 
I think I?m ready just to lose it all 

Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
You keep me running 

Never give up, never give up 

Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
Keep me running, you keep me running 
You keep me.. 

For the part with the hammer ons and pull offs somewhere in the middle 
(played with another guitar in the acoustic version) 
(am not so good with tab speak so it should be somewhat like this)
