Verse 1
CmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I FmCaught Your Trail As You Left The Pines
CmOut Into The Fields Where You Couldn’t Hide Nowhere
Just A FmThin Stitch Up Against The Rising Line
And A#Up Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
A#Up Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Fm

CmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I FmTracked You Down By The Look In The Eyes
Of A CmThousand Gone Faces Pressed Against Their Windows
Horses FmHiding In The Willows 'Til The Storm Passed By
And A A#Fine Gray Dust Seemed To Settle On The Future
A#Fine Gray Dust Seemed To Settle In Between

Your FmHat And The Dapple Of My Appaloosa
The FmOnly Living Things That I Could See
A#Up Through The Blue, I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
A#Up Through The Blue, I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Verse 2
CmI Know Who You Are Old Man Keep Running
I FmWalked Across The Bottom Of The Lake Below
Your CmBoat And Did You Know That When You Landed I Was Watching?
As The FmSky Turned Dark As The Eyes Of A Foal
And I’ll A#Know You By The Shift Of The Wind In The Cobwebs
The A#Sawdust Swirls In The Fins Of The Bullheads

The FmCraters That You Made When You Lay Down Dreaming
FmStrange Constellations That You Gave New Meaning
By The A#Teeth Marks Made On Bones Of The Ice Age
The A#Smell Of The Cinder Burning Slow In Your RibcFmage A#​
A#Listen In The Distance And You'll Hear My Shadow
FmFootsteps Soft As The Tread Of An Echo
A#Up Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling
A#Up Through The Blue I Knew The Stars Were Tumbling

Verse 3
And The A#Ground Will Open Up Into A Mouth Below Us
The A#Mouth Will Open Up Into The Empty Sky
And The FmWhistle As We Hurtle Through The Halls Of Onyx
The FmOnly Sound Around Us As We Go By
And I’ll A#Follow You Out Through The Wells Of Charcoal
A#Moonlit Stones Around The Cones Of A Black Hole

FmFields Where Grow The Ever And Forever
FmTessellated Blooms With The Voids At Their Centers
The A#Million Rooms, In A Bead Of Luminescence
The A#Filaments, On The Looms Of Dimension
The FmPillars Of Creation Where They Make The Planets
The FmBillion Tiny Teeth That Tear The Charge From Your Atoms

In A A#Trillion Tiny Bites They’ll Eat The Meat From The Pearl
And A#Throw Your Soul Away A Cold Grey Little World
And FmNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
FmNothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
A#Nothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
A#Nothing That Is Hidden Will Be Revealed
