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