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