Chorus:
D A E7 A
Alright, look at my shoes
D A E7 A
Not quite the walkin' blues
D A E7 A
Don't fight too much to lose
D A E7
Can't fight the runnin' blues
Well, I've got the running blues
Running away, back to L.A
Got to find the dock of the bay
Maybe find it back in L.A
Running scared
Running blue
Goin' so fast
What'll I do
Well, I've got the running blues
Running away, back to L.A
Got to find the dock of the bay
Maybe find it back in L.A
Chorus:
All right, look at my shoes
Not quite the walking blues
Don't fight, too much to lose
Can't fight the running blues
All right, look at my shoes
Not quite the walking blues
Don't fight, too much to lose
