RE SOL RE SOL
RE SOL
Hot summer night, I was counting all the starlight on your skin
RE SOL DO
Airtight, as I watched you breathing out, I'm breathing in
RE SOL
By the lake, so humid that the moon was getting wet
RE SOL DO
For our sake the crickets started playing their castonets
RE SOL
Like a gypsy, you stole me from a child into a man
RE SOL DO
It never hit me: I've been running ever since I took a stand
LA MIm /FA# SOL
Just swaying in the breeze like a sweet memory
RE DO SOL
Running straight outta time, straight outta time (x2)
RE SOL
Since you were mine
That autumn chill sent a shiver, girl, it shook us to the bone
And we still had February frozen on the phone
Spring thaw, would it find us with our lips frozen blue?
Love calls, but do we really live the time we're running through?
Or like a dream, do we let it die and drift away to sleep
Until it screams like an echo in the history books you keep
'Cause that stream running from the corners of my mind
Looking back I find like a river it unwinds
Running straight outta time, straight outta time (x2)
LA
Running straight outta time just like an old man's fiddle
SOL
Looking for the dance; gonna meet me in the middle
LA
I'm never gonna figure out the way that I feel -
MIm /FA# SOL RE
Running straight outta time, but my love's still real

RE SOL
Now I see you- you're looking pretty in your summer dress
RE SOL DO
I can almost feel you as you clutch your little locket to your breast
RE SOL
Looking down at the picture, girl, you know you're looking fine
RE SOL
Is it me? Was I ever in your heart or on your mind?
RE SOL
Cause I'm running outta time
D G (hold)
I'm running straight outta time
Were you ever mine?
