Why Aint I Running

[A] [D] [A] [D] [A] [D] [A] [D]
                   [A]

I can hear that highway calling
                   [D]                                               [A]
          [D]   As I watch the sunrise crawling across her shoulder
             This [A]is usually goodbye
                   [D]                                                      [A]
          [D]   And yet those words I just can't find here as I hold her

            Option: (Strum once) D
             She's like no other women

             Option: (Strum once) E
             That I have ever known before

             And it ain't me to [D]see the morning sun
             From t[E]his side of the door
             [A]                       [D]                 [F#]    [E]

Why aInt I running, Why aint I gone
             [A]How does she hold me Without hol[D]ding on              [F#]                     [E]
             In love or a fight[D], she's stronger than strong      [E]
                                       [F#]                  [E]             [D]

             Somethings not right if there aint nothing wrong
             Its got m[A]e wond[D]ering,why aint I running      [E]
             Why aint I gone   [A]       [D]          [A]              [D]
                [A]

All those worlds I left behind me
                  [D]                                                    [A]
    [D]         Praying they would never find me and my freedom
             But if they stood[A] right here beside me
             [D]                                                            [A]
   [D]          They would never recognize me for all that she's done

             Once happi[D]ness was only
             Whenever I was[E] on my own
             So now why do [D]I feel lonely
             Any tim[E]e that I'm alone

             REPEAT CHORUS

             (ONE MEASURE EACH)

[A]     [D]        [A]            [E]

            [A]     [D]        [A]            [E]

             No,[E] they've never built a [D]wall that high
             Or made a [E]chain that strong
             And God ai[D]n't never made a place
             I felt [E]like I belong

             REPEAT CHORUS
