Verse 
Am           C      F 
When I was a boy of seventeen 
  F 
I know it's mean, but I 
Am        C                 F 
I told my friend to give up on her dreams 
    F 
She hated me, but I 
Am         C                   F 
I knew the dreams were for the best of us  
            F 
And for the rest of us, and I 
Am       C                F           F 
I didn't wanna share with anyone 
Am Aadd9 Asus 
Am       C             F 
I need a way to see my greatest dance  
    F 
and make them laugh 
Am              C                F 
I could win the wars or lose the battles, too 
F 
Whichever's true 
Am            C              F 
I can live in other peoples' lives 
             F                         Am 
I can't stop putting on other peoples' clothes 
  C                F         F 
I love them 'til I leave 
Chorus 
C 
I am a marathon runner 
G               F 
And my legs are sore 
                   Em           Dm 
And I'm anxious to see what I'm running for 
C 
I am a hot air ball0on 
G 
On a sailboat 
F                    Em          Dm 
I would make this my home if I'd learned to float 
Am Aadd9 Asus 
Am         C                  F 
So take my treasures, take my earthly life,  
F 
I'll try to cry, 
Am              C                F 
I will live without the things I love the best 
             F 
So hold them to your chest 
Am             C              F 
I will lose my faces, lose my stolen wigs,  
    F 
The heads of kings 
Am           C               F             F 
I will run until I know what to believe
