1. I had a hard run, runnin' from your window
   C                                      G C/G
   I was all night runnin', runnin', Lord I wonder if you care
   C                      G       C/G
   I had a run in, run around and run down
   C                                       G C/G
   Run around the corner, corner, Lord I run smack into a tree

   C     D     Am            G D
R: I had to move, move, really had to move
   C                 G            D              C

   Bertha don't you come around here anymore
   
2. Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea
   Try to see what's goin' down, try to read between the lines
   I had a feelin' I was fallin', fallin, I turned around to see
   Heard a voice callin', you were comin' after me

R: I had to move...

3. Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into a bar door
   It's all night pourin', pourin', Lord but not a drop on me
   Test me, test me, test me, why don't you arrest me
   Throw me into the jail house, Lord until the sun goes down

R: I had to move... (5x)
