Verses with chords - Text Robert Palmer:
D
Johnnys always running around
Bb
Trying to find certainty
D
He needs all the world to confirm
F#m
That he aint lonely
G
Mary counts the walls
A
Knows he tires easily
D
Johnny thinks the world would be right
Bb
If it could buy truth from him
D F#m
Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman
G
But she made her bed
A
Even when the chance was slim
D
Johnny says hes willing to learn
Bb
When he decides hes a fool
D
Johnny says he'll live anywhere
F#m
When he earns to time to move
G
Mary combs her hair
A
Says she should be used to it
D
Mary always hedges her bets
Bb
She never knows what to think
D
She says that he still acts
F#m
Like he is being discovered
G
Scared that he'll be caught
A
Without a second thought Running around .....
Bridge Chords
D Bb D F#m7 G A
Johnny feels hes wasting his breath
Trying to talk sense to her
Mary says hes lacking a real
Sense of proportion
So she combs her hair
Knows he tires easily
Johnnys always running around
Trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm
That he aint lonely
Mary counts the walls
Says she should be used to it
Johnnys always running around
Running around ..... (fade out)
(B) Version / Text Zueri West (same chords as (A) Version Robert Palmer):
dr Johnny secklet immer drvo
solang irgendwo no nes Lichtlie broennt
er brucht die haubi Schtadt wo ihm
schtendig verzeut er sig hie nid fuer nuet
u sie zeut daheime d'Wend
sie weiss genau de chunnt de scho
dr Johnny seit i weiss wer i bi
u das Gliir vo de Luet han i lengschtens ghoert
u sie seit er enderi d'Meinig afe
flissiger aus ihri Schwoscht
u sie schtriicht ihm ueber ds Gsicht
u luegt oeb irgend e Fium afaat
se Johnny troimt vo uf u drvo
u vo wiude Roessli u so u wohi isch gliich
er wuerd am liebschte ueberau here
su Horizont isch dr Himu
sie schtraeut sech ihri Haar
sie het's jitz scho es paar mau ghoert
d'Mary hocket meischtens uf ds Muu
u mengisch weiss sie chuum meh
was sie sege soei
er reagiert jedes mau
aus haett me ne grad verwuetscht
u ner seit sie aube nuet
a er seit ner aube o nuemm vieu
dr Johnny secklet immer drvo
solang irgendwo no nes Lichtlie broennt
er brucht die haubi Schtadt wo ihm
schtaendig verzeut er sig hie nid fuer nuet
u sie zeut daheime d'Waend
sie weiss genau de chunnt de scho
