Running to Stand Still

U2 – Capo 5

G C
So she woke up, woke up from where she was, lyin' still
G C
Said "I, I gotta do somethin' about where we're goin'"
G
Stepped on steam train
C
Stepped out of the driving rain, maybe
G C
Run from the darkness, in the night Singing

D F/C C
Ah, Ah-la-la-la-de-day
D F/C C
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
G C
Ah-la-la-de-day

G C
Sweet the sin, bitter the taste in my mouth
G C
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out
G
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
C
scream without raising your voice
G
You know I took the poison
C
From the poison stream, then I floated, out of here Singing
D F/C C
Ah, Ah-la-la-la-de-day
D F/C C
Ah-la-la-la-de-day
G C
Ah-la-la-de-day

G C
Oooooooooooo, Ooo Ooo Ooo Oooooo
G C
Oooooooooooo, Ooo Ooo Ooo Oooooo

G
She runs through the streets with eyes painted red
C
Under a black belly of clouds in the rain
G
in through a doorway, she brings me
C
white gold and pearls stolen from the sea
G C
she is raging she is raging and storm blows up in her eyes

She will,
D F/C C D
suffer the needle chill,
F/C C G
She's running to stand, still.
