Living in the same town for all these years

Doing the same old things hanging with the same crowd

You want to run the opposite way

Chorus 1
B2 F# G#m7
And it seems like you are locked in a cage

The Father sent His Son down the light of men

The cross He bore was crippling
B F# G#m
Rejected in His own town

And they couldn't see the sun shining

Father let this cup pass from me
B F# G#m
It's not Your will for me to stay
E F# B
Your will for me's the opposite way

Chorus 2
B2 F# G#m7
And it seemed like He was locked in a cage
E F#
And He couldn't find a way of escape

My Jesus ran the the opposite way

Bridge

Oh He ran the opposite way

So you could run the opposite way

Opposite Way Lyrics:

Verse 1
Living in the same town for all these years
Doing the same old things hanging with the same crowd
And it's starting to get crippling
You've never felt in place
And you tell yourself it's all okay
But something's diff'rent today
You want to run the opposite way

Chorus 1
And it seems like you are locked in a cage
And you need to find a way of escape
When ev'ryone's setting the pace
It's okay to run the opposite way

Verse 2
The Father sent His Son down the light of men
The cross He bore was crippling
Rejected in His own town
And they couldn't see the sun shining
He knelt in the garden and prayed
Father let this cup pass from me
It's not Your will for me to stay
Your will for me's the opposite way

Chorus 2
And it seemed like He was locked in a cage
And He couldn't find a way of escape
But through the cross He conquered the grave
My Jesus ran the the opposite way

Bridge
Oh
Oh and through the cross He conquered the grave
Oh He ran the opposite way
And through the cross He conquered the grave
So you could run the opposite way
