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

girl like an angel runnin' in the night.

I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.
[Chorus]
A# Gm
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,

she's a runaway, a runaway.
A# Gm
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe
D# F F
that she would run away, run away.
Gm F Gm F F
Run away, run away,
Gm Gm
she's a runaway.
