[Verse 1]
Bm F#m
Yesterday she stood here with me,
G A
I kissed her mouth, I had her in my hands.
Bm F#m
That kind of love, it could last forever
G A A
and together we made our plans.
G A F#m Bm
And then I woke up today,
G A F#m Bm
there on the table her letter lay
G A A
tellin' me she's goin' away.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
Runaway, boy, have you seen a
G A
girl like an angel runnin' in the night.
Bm F#m
She's run away, boy, if you see her,
G A A
I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.
[Chorus]
D Bm
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,
G A
she's a runaway, a runaway.
D Bm
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe
G A A
that she would run away, run away.
Bm A Bm A A
Run away, run away,
Bm F#m G A
she's a runaway.
[Verse 2]
Bm F#m
I walked the streets through the heart of the city,
G A
go to the places where she might be.
Bm F#m
I see her friends they say it's a pity,
G A A
I get the same thing from everyone that I see.
G A F#m Bm
I'll keep searchin' if it's gotta be
G A F#m Bm
and when I find her I'll make her see,
G A A
no other man could love her like me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
Runaway, boy, have you seen a

I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.
[Chorus]
D Bm
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,

And why she'd leave, I still can't believe

that she would run away, run away.
Bm A Bm A A
Run away, run away,
Bm Bm
she's a runaway.
