A                            D         G   D    A
Well I never did crawl and I never did toe that line
A                     D    G     D    A
No man is a master to me I ain't that kind
        D        G         D
I just put on my traveling shoes
                     G          D        E
If you wanna win you just can't lose the time
        A
Or stay behind
           D       A
Well I was born to run
       D            A
To get ahead of the rest
     D         A             E      A
And all that I wanted was to be the best
        D    A        D       A
Just to feel free and be someone
      D          A          E       A
I was born to be fast I was born to run


A                           D          G     D    A
Well I take the chances sometimes I've made mistakes
A                           D        G    D   A
But you don't get nothing unless you take the breaks
D                      G    D
Living as dangerous as dynamite
                                   G         D         E
Sure makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright
               A
Makes you feel alright
           D       A
Well I was born to run
       D            A
To get ahead of the rest
     D         A             E      A
And all that I wanted was to be the best
        D    A       D       A
Just to feel free and be someone
      D          A          E       A
I was born to be fast I was born to run

Solo in A then B

B                         E      A    E  B
Nobody's gonna make me do things their way
B                         E       A   E    B
By the time you figure it out it's yesterday
        E               A         E
Well it comes to he who waits I'm told
E                           A    E    Gb
But I don't need it when I'm old and gray
              B
Yea I want it today
           E       B
Well I was born to run
       E            B
To get ahead of the rest
    E          B             Gb    B
And all that I wanted was to be the best
        E    B        E       B
Just to feel free and be someone
      E          B          Gb      B
I was born to be fast I was born to run
