Intro: 0:00 - 0:08
ACGAACG
Verse: 0:09 - 0:32
AC
I get you ready for the breakdown
GFACG
I'm the feeling inside you that just wants to explode
AC
I never sugarcoat a shakedown
GFACG
So empty all your pockets of the things that you think you know
A
You can bow to the prophet
You can make him an offer
A
But you're gonna reap what you sow
AC
I get you ready for the breakdown
GF
I'm the feeling inside you
ACG
You know you will never control
Chorus: 0:33 - 0:43
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DCE
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Verse: 0:44 - 1:09
AC
I know the sound that drags you downtown
GFACG
Drags you from your job and the hardwired boredom of house
AC
I see you changing from the neck down
GF
Do you walk it like you talk it?
ACG
Or say it just to hear it out loud?
A
You can drag it for miles
You can make it your style
A
Never do you much good in the ground
AC
I get you ready for the breakdown
GFA
I'm the something inside you that makes
CG
You want to slither and howl
Chorus: 1:10 - 1:21
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DCE
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Break: 1:22 - 1:51
A (stay on the A-chord for several bars)
One good love so don't let it breakdown
Something in there that never should shutdown
Your precious will
Feed your precious will
Guard your precious will
Your precious will
Verse: 1:52 - 2:15
AC
I get you ready for the breakdown
GF
The finest minds of my generation
ACG
All connected to the zeroes and ones
AC
By now you know this is a shakedown
GF
So empty all your pockets
ACG
Of the things you thought you had done
A
I bowed to the prophet
And I did it so often
A
He said, "man, you look good in my clothes.."
AC
I get you ready for the breakdown
GF
I'm the feeling inside you
ACG
It just wants to explode
Chorus: 2:16 - end
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DC
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
DCE
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
A
