  			    F#m        Bm           D         F#m  
The wind in my hair and the sun in my eyes 
B           F#m       C# 
This is the life that I have chose 
F#m         B         D    F#m 
I must keep running until I fall 
B       F#m            C#                        F#m 
I can’t live with the lies that some people have told 

F#m     Bm       C#         F#m  
Send my mother a lock of my hair 
A                  C#m        C# 
Send my father the ribbons he gave me 
F#m       E        D       C# 
Tell them hated so say farewell 
      Bm                  A              C#m    F#m 
But I can’t live with the lies that some people tell 
Bm                          F#m 
Why can’t the world be like little yellow roses 
C#                                    F#m 
Lies they don’t know, truth only they grow 

I’ve always believed all man are equal 
Whatever colour, religion or land 
I can’t stand still and watch it destroyed 
So I’ll keep on running until it is forever mend   

Chorus
