Words and music: Bob Seger


 C                        Em 
It seems like yesterday, but it was a long time ago
 F                           C 
She was lovely, she was the queen of my nights
 G                              F 
There in the darkness with the radio playing low.
 C                           Em 
The secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved
 F                                 C 
Caught like a wild fire out of control
               F 
Till there was nothing left to burn
                    G 
and nothing left to prove.
      Am       G                C 
And I remember what she said to me
              Am            F     C 
How she swore that it would never end
  Am               G              F 
I remember how she held me oh, so tight,
                                          G       C 
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.


Chorus:
            Em 
Against the wind,
 F                           C 
We were running against the wind.
        F         Em 
We were young and strong,
        Dm       F           C 
We were running against the wind.

 C                        Em 
The years rolled slowly past, I found myself alone,
 F                           C 
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends,
 G                              F 
I found myself further and further from my home.
 C                           Em 
And I guess I lost my way, there were oh, so many roads.
 F                                 C 
I was livin' to run and runnin' to live,
               F                        G 
Never worrying about paying or how much I owed.
      Am       G                C 
Movin' eight miles a minute for months at a time,
   Am               G              F 
Breakin' all of the rules that would bend.
  Am               G 
I began to find myself
 F                              G       C 
Searching for shelter again and again.


Chorus:
            Em 
Against the wind,
 F                           C 
We were running against the wind.
        F         Em 
We were young and strong,
        Dm       F           C 
We were running against the wind.

      Am       G                C 
All those drifter's days are passed me now
  Am               G              F 
I've got so much more to think about
  Am               G 
Deadlines and commitments,
 F                                 G       C 
What to leave in and what to leave out.



Chorus:
 Em 
Against the wind,
 F                           C 
We were running against the wind.
         F     Em 
Well I'm older now and still
 G                   F 
Running against the wind
            C 
Against the wind
