It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

E
I had the radio on. I was drivin'
D
Trees flew by, me and Del was singin' little runaway
E
I was flyin'
CHORUS

G E
Yeah I'm runnin' down a dream
E
G A
That never would come to me
A G
E E G
A
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
A G E
Runnin' down a dream
I felt so good like anything was possible
I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last tree days the rain was un-stoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
CHORUS
I rolled on as the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
