[Verse 1]
C Dm
I never been this far before waves across the railing and I’ve
C Dm
somehow lost the lights of shore and the outboard motor’s failing.
F G C Am
Have I ever been this turned around, have I been more at your mercy?
F G C Am
It’s cold I’m stoned I’m watching the boat go down, I’m yours to help or
hurt me.
[Chorus]
C Am C Am C Am Dm Dm
Horse no rider, horse no rider, horse no rider coming through,
C Am Dm Dm C Am Dm Dm
I’m running.
[Verse 2]
C Am Dm
I make my way the best I can, fog against the headlights,
C Am Dm
and the pale captor waiting at each turning in the roadside.
F G C Am
Has my hunger ever been more plain, has my need ever been more naked?
F G C Am
It’s too late in the evening to be ashamed, if you’re offering I’ll take it.
[Chorus]
C Am C Am C Am Dm Dm
Horse no rider, horse no rider, horse no rider coming through,
C Am Dm Dm C Am Dm Dm
I’m running, I’m running.

[Verse 3]
C Am Dm
I could pretend I woke up at your front door unexpected
C Am Dm
but you always were the type to know a lie before I said it.
F G C Am
So many questions I never asked how could things go so wrong
F G C Am
and what is love anyway but the prettiest bird singing such a bitter song.
[End-Chorus]
C Am C Am C Am Dm Dm
Horse no rider, horse no rider, horse no rider coming through.
C Am C Am C Am Dm Dm
Horse no rider, horse no rider, horse no rider coming through,
C Am Dm Dm C Am Dm Dm
I’m running, I’m running.
