  \begin{verse}
    \[G] It seems like yesterday
    \[Bm] But it was long ago
    \[C] Janey was lovely, she was the \[G]queen of my nights
    \[D]There in the darkness with the ra\[C]dio, playing low
  \end{verse}

  \begin{verse*}
    \[G] And the secrets that we shared
    \[Bm] The mountains that we moved
    \[C] Caught like wildfire \[G]out of control
    Till there was \[C]nothing left to burn and nothing left to \[D]prove
  \end{verse*}

  \begin{verse*}
    And I re\[Em]member \[D]what she said to \[G]me
    How she \[Em]swore that it \[C]never would \[G]end
    I re\[Em]member how she held \[D]me, oh \[C]so tight
    \[C]Wish I didn't know now what I \[D]{didn't} know then
  \end{verse*}


  \begin{chorus}
    \[G] Against the wind \[Bm]
    \[C] We were running against the \[G]wind
    We were \[C]young and \[Bm]strong
    We were \[Am]running a\[C]gainst the \[G]wind
  \end{chorus}


  \begin{verse}
    \[G] And the years rolled slowly past
    \[Bm] And I found myself alone
    \[C] Surrounded by strangers I \[G]thought were my friends
    I \[D]found myself further and \[C]further from my home
  \end{verse}

  \begin{verse*}
    \[G] And I guess I lost my way
    \[Bm] There were oh, so many roads
    I was \[C]living to run, and \[G]running to live
    Never wor\[D]rying about paying, or even how \[C]much I owed
  \end{verse*}

  \begin{verse*}
    Runnin' \[Em]8 miles a \[D]minute for months at a \[G]time
    Breaking \[Em]all of the \[C]rules that would \[G]bend
    \[Em] I begin to \[D]find myself just \[C]searching
    \[C]Searching for shelter a\[D]gain and again
  \end{verse*}


  \begin{chorus}
    \[G] Against the wind \[Bm]
    \[C] A little something against the \[G]wind
    I \[C]found my\[Bm]self
    Seeking \[Am]shelter a\[C]gainst the \[G]wind
  \end{chorus}

  \textnote[english]{First and second stanzas instrumental}
  \textnote[french]{Première et seconde strophes instrumentales}

  \begin{verse}
    Well those \[Em]drifter's \[D]days are past \[G]me now
    I've got \[Em]so much \[C]more to think a\[G]bout
    \[Em] Dead\[D]lines and commit\[C]ments
    \[C] What to leave in? \[D] What to leave out?
  \end{verse}


  \begin{chorus}
    \[G] Against the wind \[Bm]
    \[C] I'm still running against the \[G]wind
    I'm \[C]older \[Bm]now
    but still \[Am]running a\[C]gainst the \[G]wind
  \end{chorus}
