All The Roadrunning by Mark Knopfler



         All The Roadrunning 




Intro: 	C    	Am	C	F	C		

Verse 1:
   C       Am        Dm       Am           
a million miles our vegabond heels 
         F                C
clocked up beneath the clouds
         Dm       Am       G                 
they're counting down to showtime 
            C          Am             F
when we'll do it for real with the crowds
Dm            G               Am             F
Air miles are owning but they don't come for free
          C              Am      F
And they don't give you any for pain
F           C       G       
but if it's all for nothing 
C           Am        F            C 
all the roadrunning, has been in vain

Fill:	C    	Am	C	F	C

Verse 2:
     C             Am        Dm      Am
the rimshots come down like cannon fire
       F              C
and thunders off the wall
           Dm    Am     G
there's a man in every corner 
     C          Am        F
and each one's giving his all
Dm           G     Am         F
this is my piper, this is my drum 
           C          Am          F        
so you'll never will hear me complain
F           C        G
and if it's all for nothing 
C            Am      F             C
all the roadrunning has been in vain

F           G
all the roadrunning
F           C
all the roadrunning

Verse 3:
Well if you’re inclined to go up on the wall
It can only be fast and high
And those who don’t like the danger soon
Find something different to try
And when there is only a ring in your ears
And an echo down memory lane
Then if it’s all for nothing
All the roadrunning has been in vain

All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning

Verse 4:
The show’s packing up, i sit and I watch
The carnival eaving town
There’s no pretending that I’m not a fool
For riding around and around
Like the pictures you keep of your old wall of death
You showed me one time on the plane
But if it’s all for nothing
All the roadrunning, has been in vain

Fill:	 C    	Am	C	F	C

Verse 6:
I've a million miles of vagabond sky
Clocked up above the clouds
And i’m still your man for the roaming
For as long as there's roaming allowed
There’ll be a rider and there’ll be a wall
As long as the dream remains
And if it’s all for nothing
All the road running, it’s been in vain

All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning
All the roadrunnung
... ... ...

  C       Am        G
A million miles our vagabond heels
        Am  F            C
Clocked up    beneath the clouds
       G7                Am      F
They're counting down to show time
        C         Am            F
When we do it for real with the crowds
G7
Air miles are owing
          Am             F
But they don't come for free
         C              Am      F
And they don't give you any for pain
C                   G
But if it's all for nothing
Am          F
All the roadrunning's
       C
Been in vain

     C                     G
The rimshots come down like cannon fire
    Am       F        C   
And thunder   off the wall
          G     G7     Am  F
There's a man in every corner
    C                      F
And each one is giving his all
G          G7    Am         F
This is my fife  This is my drum
       C                     F
So you never will hear me complain
C                   G
And if it's all for nothing
Am          F
All the roadrunning's
        C
Been in vain

F           G
All the roadrunning
F           C
All the roadrunning

Well if you're inclined
To go up on the wall
It can only be fast and high
And those who don't like the danger
Soon find something different to try
When there's only a ringin' in your ears
And an echo down memory lane

But if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain

All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning

The show's packing up
I sit and watch the convoy
Leaving town
There's no pretending I'm not a fool,
For riding around and around
Like the pictures you keep of your old wall of death
You showed me one time on the plane

But if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain

A million miles of vagabond sky
Clocked up above the clouds
I'm still your man for the roaming
For as long as there's roamin' allowed

There'll be a rider
And there'll be a wall
As long as the dreamer remains

And if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain

All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
