[Verse 1]
Em D/F# G C
Papa, he was gone tryna make a dime
G D/F# Em
Mama kept us warm when there was no sunshine
D/F# G C
I was busy building up a reputation
D Em
Did a lot of things out of desperation
D/F# G C
Back up on my feet, got the motivation
G D/F# Em
Now I found my faith and a good vibration

[Pre-Chorus]
Em D/F#
Search for you, lover, creation
G C G D/F#
When you're feeling down in this place, just replace them
Em D/F# G
Keep a vision on the one you've been chasing
C D
When the time comes we'll run to the station
Em D/F# G
We've been laced with the powers of creation
C G D/F#
So when the sun sets, you bet you must face them
Em D/F# G
Remember when we were running 'cross the nation
C D
We were living for the here and now
[Chorus]
Em G
You can't catch me
C D
I'll be gone by the time they come
Em G
You can't catch me
C D
The war is already won
Em G
Even though the children have sold their guns
C D
We must remember the fallen ones
Em G C D
Remember the fallen ones
