[Verse 1]
D
Where you off to, Janie Blu?
D
Don’t you know that your daddy ain’t home?
D
He went and left that blame with you
D                                                       G
And that’s a real heavy thing to hold, to hold

[Verse 2]
D
I’ve seen you lean on sweet addictions
D
When the pain’s just a little too much
D
Do you think you’ll find redemption
D                                     G                                  D
In the arms of a stranger’s touch, a stranger’s touch?

[Chorus]
G
Why you wanna keep runnin’?
Bm
From the one thing that’s been true?
A                                  Em
I know I can’t keep clingin’
D
To my Janie Blu

But no such thing as pure

Why you wanna keep runnin’?

From the one thing that’s been true?

But, girl, I must confess
D                                                  Em
Right now, I’m barely hangin’ on

Like the cross around your neck

[Chorus]
G
Why you wanna keep runnin’?
Bm
From the one thing that’s been true?
A                                  Em
I know I can’t keep clingin’
