The Running Kind by Merle Haggard
The Running Kind
Tuning: E A D G B E
[intro]
G
[Chorus]
G
I was born the running kind leaving always on my mind
C
Home was never home to me at anytime
D7
Every front door found me hoping I would find the back door open
G
There just had to be an exit for the running kind
[Verse 1]
G
Within me there's a prison surrounding me alone
C
As real as any dungeon - with a wall of stone
D7
I know running's not the answer but running's been my nature
G
And a part of me that keeps -me moving on
[Chorus]
G
I was born the running kind leaving always on my mind
C
Home was never home to me at anytime
D7
Every front door found me hoping I would find the back door open
G
There just had to be an exit for the running kind

I was born the runnin' kind
With leavin' always on my mind
Home was never home to me at any time
Every front door found me hopin'
I would find the back door open
There just had to be an exit
For the runnin' kind
Within me there's a prison
Surrounding me alone
As real as any dungeon with its walls of stone
I know runnin's not the answer
Yeah, but runnin's been my nature
And a part of me
That keeps me movin' on
I was born the runnin' kind
With leavin' always on my mind
Home was never home to me at any time
Every front door found me hopin'
I would find the back door open
There just had to be an exit
For the runnin' kind
I was born the runnin' kind
With leavin' always on my mind
Home was never home to me at any time
Every front door found me hopin'
I would find the back door open
There just had to be an exit
For the runnin' kind
