[Intro 1]
[C][G][F][C]
[G][C][G][F][C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Blonde
[G]hair blowin' in the sum[F]mer wind
A blue- eyed [C]girl playing [G]in the sand
I'd [C]been on [G]a trail for [F]a little while
But that was the [C]night that she [G]broke
down and held my [F]hand
The teenage [Am]rush, she said,
[Dm]'maybe I'll just runaw[G]ay, we got time'
[F]Well that ain't [Am]much...
We can't [G]wait 'til to[F]morrow
You gotta [G]know that this is [Am]real,
baby [F]why you wanna [Em]fight it?
It's the [Am]one thing y[G]ou c[C]an c[F]hoose,
oh!
[G][Am][F]

[Verse 2]
[G]We got en[Am]gaged on a Fri[F]day night
I swore on the head [C]of our un[G]born child that
[C]I could t[G]ake care of the three o[F]f us
But I got the tend[C]ency to slip
[G]when the nights get wil[F]d.
It's in my [Am]blood
[Dm]She says she might just runa[G]way somewhere else[F],
some place [Am]good
We can't [G]wait 'til to[F]morrow
You gotta [G]know that this is [Am]real,
baby [F]why you wanna [C]fight it?
[Em]It's [Am]the one thing [G]you [C]can [F]choose

[Verse 3]
Let's take [G]a chance baby we can't lose
And we're all just [C]run[G]aways[F]
I knew that when I met you,
[C]I'm not gonna [G]let you [C]run[G]away
[F]I knew that when I held you,
I [C]wasn't lettin' [G]go

[Verse 4]
We used to [Em]look at the stars and
con[Am]fess our dreams
Hold each [F]other to the morning light
We [C]used to laugh, now we [Am]only fight
[G]Baby are you lonesome [F]now?

[Verse 5]
At night I [C]come [G]home after
they go [F]to sleep
Like a stumbling [C]ghost,
I [G]haunt these halls
There's a [C]picture [G]of us
on our wed[F]ding day
I recognize the [C]girl but I can
[G]'t settle in these wall[F]s

[Verse 6]
We can't [G]wait 'til to[F]morrow
No we're caught [G]up in the ap[Am]peal,
baby [F]why you wanna [Em]hide it?
It's [G]the last thing [Am]on my mind
[F](Why you wan[Em]na hide it?)
[G]I turn the engine over and my body just
comes alive and we all just [C]run[G]away[F]
I knew that when I met you,
[C]I'm not gonna [G]let you [C]run[G]away
[F]I knew that when I held you,
I [C]wasn't lettin [G]go, no no no!
[C](No no no!)
[G](And we're all [Em]just [F]runaways)
[C]Yea[Dm]h run[G][C]
[G]away[Em]
[F](And we're all just runaways)
[C]Yeah[Dm]
[G][Am][F]
