verse 1 I got up and dusted off my running shoes To see how far I could run away I got up the hill and came back down again And I blamed it all on you The foolish things I do Chorus I tried to leave you but I don't know how I try to give you up a thousand times I told myself all kinds of foolish lies But it's your love that won't run dry verse 2 I have looked down all those drinking wells In some of them, I accidentally fell But when I hit the bottom All I came up with was a dry and empty shell Chorus I tried to leave you but I don't know how I try to give you up a thousand times I told myself all kinds of foolish lies But it's your love that won't run dry Bridge I gave it in I gave it all I just don't know anymore I can't take this I just don't know anymore Chorus (soft) I tried to leave you but I don't know how I try to give you up a thousand times Ooh, I tell myself all kinds of foolish lies Oh, but it's your love, it's your love, that won't run dry Chorus (loud) I tried to leave you but I don't know how, oh I try to give you up a thousand times Yes, I told myself all kinds of foolish lies Oh, but it's your love, it's your love, that won't run dry Tag Oh , it just won't run, it just won't run, dry, oh Coda (for the ending, sustain the for 4 beats, hit the 3 times with a rest on beat 4, then sustain on a low power chord) //As a general rule throughout, use a lighter tone/attack for the verses and soft Chorus than for the loud Choruses.// //Disclaimer: I play piano so these chords may not fit a guitar well but they are true to the original song.//
