Against the Wind (Forrest Gump)

 144. Against the Wind (Forrest Gump) page 1

G (I) It seems like yesterday b (iii) But it was long ago

C (IV) Janey was lovely, she was the G (I) queen of my nights

D (V) There in the darkness with the C (IV) radio playing low

G (I) And the secrets that we shared b (iii) The mountains that we moved

C (IV) Caught like a wildfire G (I) out of control Till there was C (IV) nothing left 

to burn and D (V) nothing left to prove And I e (vi) remember D (V) what she said to G (I) me How she e (vi) swore that it C (IV) never would end G (I) 

e (vi) I remember how she D (V) held me C (IV) oh so tight

C (IV) Wish I didn't know now what I D (V) didn't know then

G (I) Against the b (iii) wind C (IV) We were runnin' against the G (I) wind

We were C (IV) young and b (iii) strong, we were a (ii) runnin' a- C (IV) gainst 

the G (I) wind And the years rolled slowly past b (iii) And I found myself alone

C (IV) Surrounded by strangers I G (I) thought were my friends

D (V) I found myself further and C (IV) further from my home

G (I) And I guess I lost my way b (iii) There were oh so many roads

I was C (IV) living to run and G (I) running to live

C (IV) Never worried about paying or even D (V) how much I owed

 

 

144. Against the Wind (Forrest Gump) page 2

Moving e (vi) eight miles a D (V) minute for months at a G (I) time

Breaking e (vi) all of the C (IV) rules that would G (I) bend

e (vi) I began to D (V) find myself C (IV) searchin' Searching for shelter 

D (V) again and again G (I) Against the b (iii) wind 

C (IV) A little something against the G (I) wind 

I C (IV) found my- b (iii) self seeking a (ii) shelter a- C (IV) gainst the G (I) wind

Instrumental Interlude

Well those e (vi) drifters D (V) days are past me G (I) now 

I've got e (vi) so much C (IV) more to think a- G (I) bout

E (vi) Dead- D (V) lines and com- C (IV) mitments 

C (IV) What to leave in, D (V) what to leave out

G (I) Against the b (iii) wind C (IV) I'm still runnin' against the G (I) wind

Well I'm C (IV) older b (iii) now and still a (ii) runnin’  A- C (IV) gainst the G (I) wind
