A                   D
Six o'clock in the morning
            A                D
You're the last to hear the warning
              A                  D                A    D
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world
             A               D
You've been falling off the sidewalk
      A                 D
Your lips move but you can't talk
  A                  D                A   D
Tryin' to throw your arms around the world

Chorus:
           A          D          A
I'm gonna run to you run to you run
        D         A  D A D
to you woman be still
           A          D          A
I'm gonna run to you run to you run
       D               A  D A D
to you ya know that I will

Sunrise like a nosebleed
Your head hurts and you can't breathe
You been tryin' to throw you arms around the world
How far you gonna go
Before you lose your way back home?
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world

Chorus

I dreamed that I saw Dali
With a supermarket trolley
He was trying to throw his arms around a girl
He took an open top beetle
Through the eye of a needle
He was tryin' to throw his arms around the world

Chorus

Nothin' much to say I guess
Just the same as all the rest
Been trying to throw your arms around the world
A woman needs a man
Like a fish needs a bicycle
When you're tryin' to throw your arms around the world

Chorus

I'm gonna run to you, run to you, run to you,
woman be still
Woman be still,
woman be still,
woman I will
