Snow Patrol - The President: chords

      C
I've run to ground
     Am            G               F         C
I've run from everyone that I have ever known
    C
I'm aching cold
    Am               G               F        C
I'm aching from the bones the very blood of me

Chorus:
          Am
And it's broke before you know it
             G
Before you knew what it was for
          F
All you know is you can't fix it
         C
And you wish you'd listened more
        Am
To your instincts to your family
        G
To the wisdom you'd ignored
         F                            C G
Are you finally gonna ask us for help?

I've crashed to Earth
But I've fallen for so long that it was just relief
I saw your face
In everyone that looked me in my drunken eyes

Chorus

Chorus:
I can see you at the front gate
As you wait on my return
The years have blurred to eons
But the tears have never dried
But I'm not coming to you like this
So battered down and sad
I will take the road forgotten again
