D                         Bm
Heart like an anchor your head spillin' over
D                         Bm
Beautiful baby we'll have they adore ya
Bm
You go away but they're still chasing after
D                      Bm
Rollin' around in the weeds while they ramble on

Chorus:
G
Straight for this life
    Bm              A
And I'll come runnin'
G
Straight for this life
    Bm              A
Well I'll come runnin'
G
Straight for this life
Bm       A       D
I'll be ready soon

Bound again they can still make you wonder
How to begin with the spell that you're under
Talking away but they're still sayin' nothin'
You hang around but your will may be broken, then

Chorus:
Straight for this life
And I'll come runnin'
Straight for this life
Well I'll come runnin'
Straight for this life
And I'll be ready soon

Straight for this life
And I'll come runnin'
Straight for this life
Well I'll come runnin'
Straight for this life
Well I'll be ready soon
Well I'll be ready soon
Well I'll be ready soon
Be ready soon
