[Verse 1]
Gsus2            Bbmaj7/G        Am7/G
There's a lot of tension in this town
            Fsus2/G      Gsus2       Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
I know it's building up inside of me
Gsus2             Bbmaj7/G         Am7/G
I've got all the symptoms and the side effects
   Fsus2/G     Gsus2  Bbmaj7/G   Am7/G  Gsus4
Of city life anxiety
Gsus2           Bbmaj7/G         Am7/G    Fsus2/G
I could never understand why the urban attitude
        Gsus2  Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
Is so superior
Gsus2         Bbmaj7/G       Am7/G
In a world of high rise ambition
              Fsus2/G       Gsus2 Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G
Most people's motives are ulterior

[Chorus]
G7/B
Oh!
C                               F          C
Sometimes I feel as though I'm running on ice
F            C        G6  G
Paying the price too long
Am7                              Bb         C
Kind of get the feeling that I'm running on ice
Bb            C            Dsus
Where did my life go wrong?

[Verse 2]
Gsus2   Bbmaj7/G            Am7/G
I'm a cosmopolitan sophisticate
     Fsus2/G       Gsus2     Bbmaj7/G Am7/G Gsus4
Of culture and intelligence
Gsus2         Bbmaj7/G   Am7/G
The culmination of technology
    Fsus2/G        Gsus2  Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
And civilized experience
Gsus2               Bbmaj7/G           Am7/G    Fsus2/G
But I'm carrying the weight of all the useless junk
                   Gsus2    Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
A modern man accumulates
Gsus2     Bbmaj7/G     Am7/G
I'm a statistic in a system
        Fsus2/G       Gsus2   Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G
That a civil servant dominates

[Chorus]
C                                   F         C
Oh, and all that means is that I'm running on ice
F              C         G6  G
Caught in the vise so strong
Am7                                  Bb        C
I'm slipping and sliding, 'cause I'm running on ice
Bb            C           Dsus
Where did my life go wrong?

[Bridge]
              Gm   Ebmaj7/G  D/G
You've got to run,   run,    run
Gm7 Gm7/F Eb
Oh!
Cm7  F  Bb
Oh!
Gm   Ebmaj7/G  D/G
Run,  Run,     Run
Gm7 Gm7/F  Eb
Oh!
Cm7  F  D
Oh!

[Verse 3]
Gsus2    Bbmaj7/G
As fast as I can  climb
  Am7/G            Fsus2/G         Gsus2  Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
A new disaster every time I turn around
Gsus2        Bbmaj7/G
As soon as I get one fire put out
          Am7/G          Fsus2/G  Gsus2  Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
There's another building burning down
Gsus2         Bbmaj7/G        Am7/G
They say this highway's going my way
      Fsus2/G                Gsus2    Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G  Gsus4
But I don't know where it's taking me
Gsus   Bbmaj7/G     Am7/G     Fsus2/G
It's a bad waste, a sad case, a rat race
      Gsus2    Bbmaj7/G  Am7/G
It's breaking me

[Chorus]
G7/B
Oh!
C                            F          C
I get no traction 'cause I'm running on ice
      F         C        G6  G
It's taking me twice as long
Am7                              Bb        C
I get a bad reaction 'cause I'm running on ice
Bb           C        Dsus
Where did my life go wrong?

[Bridge]
              Gm   Ebmaj7/G  D/G
You've got to run,   run,    run
Gm7 Gm7/F Eb
Oh!
 Gm           Ebmaj7/G   D/G
Run,   run,    run, run, run, oh
Cm7  F  Bb
Oh!
