Against the Wind

Bob Seger

 GG
 It seems like yesterday
 BmBm
 But it was long ago 
 CG
 Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights
 DC
 There in the darkness with the radio playing low
 GG
 And the secrets that we shared
 BmBm
 The mountains that we moved
 CG
 Caught like a wildfire out of control
 CDD
Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove             

Prechorus1:
Em X G
And I remember what she said to me
 EmCG
How she swore that it never would end
Em X C
I remember how she held me oh so tight
 CD
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Chorus1:
 GBm
 Against the wind
 CG
 We were runnin' against the wind
 CBmC
We were young and strong, we were runnin'
 G
against the wind

Intro again

Verse2:
And the years rolled slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
And I guess I lost my way
There were oh so many roads
I was living to run and running to live
Never worried about paying or even how much I owned

Prechorus2:
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searchin'
Searching for shelter again and again

CHorus2:
Against the wind
A little something against the wind
I found myself seeking shelter
against the wind

Instrumental: Intro and verse

Prechorus3:
Well those drifters days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out

Chorus 3:
 GBm
 Against the wind
 CG
 I'm still runnin' against the wind
 CBmC
Well I'm older now and still runnin'
 GG
Against the wind      

Outro:
 CBmGD
Well I'm older now and still runnin'  
 CC
 Against the wind
G G and so on (C,C,G,G,C,C....) until fades
Against the wind
Against the wind
still' runnin
Against the wind
Still' runnin' against the wind
Against the wind
I'm still runnin'
Against the wind
I'm still runnin' against the wind
Against the wind
Still runnin'
Against the wind
Runnin' against the wind runnin' Against the wind
Against the wind
See the young man run
Against the wind
Watch the young man run
Against the wind
Watch the young man runnin'
Against the wind
Runnin' against the wind
Against the wind
And the cowboys run
Against the wind
Ohhhh
Against the wind
And the cowboys run
Against the wind
Runnin' against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
