 Short Intro and Lyric chord pattern.... (4x)- (2x) - (1x) - (1x)

 You're with me tonight on this dark highway... (2x) - (1x) - (1x) (repeat

 (2x) - (1x) - (1x) pattern after every lyric line)

We've run it together So many times

We've run it for money, We've run it for music

We've run it to pay for our innocent crimes

I took on my father and I'm still walkin

Took on all comers in some shape or form

And I see with the eyes of something wounded

Something still standing after the storm

 Here's one to glory and survival..... (4x)- (2x) - (1x) - (1x) (twice)

 And staying alive, It's the running man's bible..... (4x)- (three times)

 I been next in line, I been next to nothing.... (2x) - (1x) - (1x)

Been next to bystanders Who shoulda said something

It was not in my vision, It was not in my mind

To return from a mission, A man left behind

 Here's one to glory and survival..... (4x)- (2x) - (1x) - (1x) (twice)

 And staying alive, It's the running man's bible..... (4x)- (three times)

 I don't speak of the times I’ve nearly died.... (2x) - (1x) - (1x)

I don't speak of out lasting those who are gone

Or the things I've done I care not to remember

Or the desperate measures that might have been wrong

Honey here's one to glory, here's to bad weather

And all the hard things we’ve been through together

Here's to the golden rule and survival

And to staying alive, it's the running man's bible

Here's one to glory and survival.

 And staying alive, It's the running man's bible..... (4x)- (three times)
