Paul Weller - Why walk when you can run

^AmMy son runs to th^Ce shore ^GTo the world that li^Esus4es bef^Eore ^AmBut he can’t he^Car my sound ^GHe’s much too in tu^Esus4ne wit^Eh the ground ^FHe sees only the tid^Ge and the surf and the s^Cea ^{Am F}He’s oblivious to ^Gme calling ^{Am E}

^AmIn years to come I will ^Cstill ca^Gll him son ^{Esus4 E Am}He’ll have n^Co time to wait ^GHe must see beyon^Esus4d his ^Efate ^FHe’ll say only the su^Gn and the wind make hi^Cm free ^{Am F}His only defence will a^Glways be ^{Am E}

^AmRun like the wind run like the wind ^FRun like the wind run like the wind ^GRun like the wind run like the wind ^CRun like the wind run like the wind my son ^{Esus4 E Am}Through sheets of time ^{C G}On the wings of a bird ^{Esus4 E Am}He’ll come to^C the edge ^GTo look life in the ^Esus4eyes ^E

^FHe’ll see only the k^Geys to the world and is^C dreams ^{Am F}His strongest defenc^Ge will always b^Ame ^E

^AmRun like the wind run like the wind ^FRun like the wind run like the wind ^GRun like the wind run like the wind ^CRun like the wind run like the wind my son ^{Esus4 E}

^AmRun like the wind run like the wind ^FNo turning back no giving in ^GRun like the wind run like the wind ^CRun like the wind run like the wind my son ^{Esus4 E}
