  			(intro)   B F# E  F# G#m7 B F# E F# B 

B                      B    F#      E 
Living in the same town 
For all these years 
           E   F#  G#m7 
Doing the same old things 
                           B  F#  E 
Hanging with the same crowd 
                     E  F#     B 
And it’s starting to get crippling 

               B  F#   E 
You’ve never felt in place 
                           E  F#    G#m7 
And you tell yourself it’s all okay 
                  B   F#      E 
But something’s different today 
                    E     F#     B 
You want to run the opposite way 

                                       B   F#      E 
And it seems like you’re locked in a cage 
                        E  F#    G#m7 
And you need to find a way of escape 
                                B   F#      E 
When everyone is setting the pace 
                       E/B  F#/D#    B 
It’s okay to run the opposite way 

The Father sent His Son down 
The light of men 
The cross He bore was crippling 
Rejected in His own town 
They couldn’t see the sun shining 
He knelt in the garden and prayed 
Father, let this cup pass from me 
It’s not Your will for me to stay 
Your will for me is the opposite way 

And it seemed like He was locked in a cage 
And He couldn’t find away of escape 
But through the cross He conquered the grave 
My Jesus ran the opposite way 
                                                 B   F#      E 
Oh, and through the cross He conquered the grave 
                E  F#    G#m7 
Oh, He ran the opposite way 
                                   B   F#      E 
Yeah, through the cross He conquered the grave 
                      E/B  F#/D#    B 
So you could run the opposite way
