Billy Talent - Runnin’ Across the Tracks: chords

G Am
This ain't no TV show
G Am
You watch my head explode
Em F
Ten thousand
            Em F
hours every day
G Am
No time to be afraid
G Am
Chase up the
rattle snakes
Em F
Don't let your fear
             Em  F
control your fate

     Dm              C
The ghost of self denial
    Dm                 C
It whispers from the grave
     Dm               C
The road you can't rely on
      Em                 F
Is a risk that you must take

Chorus:
              Am
I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
              C
Pulling the blindfolds back
               F
All we did in life
              Am
I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks
(And I'm never coming back)
               C
We're gonna escape
                       F
this trap Gotta get a life

Stuck in this prison cell
Just like a criminal
I count the years that went to waste
If this road goes to Hell
I'm right back where I fell
Made a career from my mistakes

The ghost of self denial
It whispers from the grave
The road you can't rely on
Could be your saving grace

Chorus

           Am
And every step that
I aim to take
(I fall behind
I fall behind)
           C
And every leg that
I have to break
         F
(These scars are mine
These scars are mine)
         Am
And everyday that
I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
                C
At least I can say
that we made it through
            Dm
(The stars aligned
The stars aligned)
The stars aligned
            F
The stars aligned
            Am    F Am
The stars aligned

     F
And words just
can't explain
the struggle of a
Am
dead men's fight
A dead mens fight
     F
And silver spoons get
by the wasted mother
Am
hard earns life
A hard earns life

        F
Every step that
I aim to take
(I fall behind
I fall behind)
          Am
And every leg that
I have to break
(These scars are mine
These scars are mine)
         Dm
And everyday that
I'd pray for you
            F
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
       Am
And I hope that
you make it through
Yeah I hope that
     G/B    C
you make through
           Am
It's up to you!

Chorus

           Am
And every step that
I aim to take
(I fall behind
I fall behind)
           C
And every leg that
I have to break
         F
(These scars are mine
These scars are mine)
         Am
And everyday that
I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes
I close my eyes)
                C
At least I can say
that we made it through
             F
(The stars aligned
The stars aligned)
             Am
The stars aligned
