A
The green truck hummed low
F#m
Ah, we took only back roads
D
We drove miles of country
D E
We saw an old barn burning
A
Skies were a light blue
F#m
All the billboards read untrue
D
I read them, each one
D E
We passed by the thousands
A
Was a full sun at high noon
F#m
And up rose a bright moon
D
Casting shadows,
D E
Like dancing sparrows
A (strum once)
Sing me baby home,
A
Sing me baby home,
F#m
Run baby, run baby, run baby, run
D
Run from the one who you know that you love
E A
Run baby, run baby, run baby, baby run
A
Oh we turned on the radio
F#m
And listened to talk shows
D
Till the engine slowly,
D E
drove down into sleep
A
The desert's sunrise
F#m
Was a feast to our eyes
D
The dry heat and hot wind
D E
Caressing our skin
A
We'll go no further
F#m
We'll build us a home here
D
For a time, not forever
D E
Just you and I dear
A (strum once)
Sing me baby home,
A
Sing me baby home,
F#m
Run baby, run baby, run baby, run
D
Run from the one who you know that you love
E A
Run baby, run baby, run baby, baby run
A (strum once)
Sing me baby home,
A
Sing me baby home,
F#m
Run baby, run baby, run baby, run
D
Run from the one who you know that you love
E A
Run baby, run baby, run baby, baby run
