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

[Verse 1]
[C]Blonde hair [G]blowing in the sum[F]mer wind
A blue-eyed [C]girl playing [G]in the sand
I'd [C]been on her [G]trail for a lit[F]tle while
But that was the [C]night that she
[G]broke down and held my [F]hand
A teenage [Am]rush
She [Dm]said, "Ain't we all just [G]runaways?
We got [F]time"
But that ain't [Am]much

[Pre-chorus 1]
We can't [G]wait till to[F]morrow
You got to [G]know that this [Am]is real, baby,
[F]why you want [C]to fight it?
It's the [Am]one t[G]hing you 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 [C]head of our [G]un born child
That [C]I could take c[G]are of the three o[F]f us
But I got the [C]tendency to [G]slip
when the nights get [F]wild
It's in my [Am]blood
[Dm]She said she might just runa[G]way
somewhere else
[F]Someplace goo[Am]d

[Pre-chorus 2]
We can't [G]wait till to[F]morrow
You got to [G]know that this [Am]is real, baby,
[F]why you want [C]to fight it?
It's the [Am]one t[G]hing you c[C]an c[G]hoose,
Let's take a [G]chance baby, we can't lose

[Chorus 1]
Ain't we all just [C]runa[G]ways?
[F]I knew it when I met you,
[C]I'm not gonna let[G] you run[C]awa[G]y
[F]I knew it when I held you,
[C]I wasn't letting g[G]o!

[Bridge 1]
We used to [Em]look at the stars
and con[Am]fess our dreams
Hold each [F]other till the morning light
We [C]used to laugh, now we [Am]only fight
[G]Baby are you lonesome [F]now?

[Verse 3]
At night I [C]come home [G]after they go [F]to sleep
Like a stumbling [C]ghost, I [G]haunt these halls
There's a [C]picture of [G]us on our wed[F]ding day
I recognize the [C]girl but I [G]can't settle in
these [F]walls

[Pre-chorus 3]
We can't [G]wait till to[F]morrow
Oh, we're caught [G]up in the [Am]appeal baby,
[F]why you wan[C]na hide it?
It's the [G]last [Am]thing on my mind
[F](Why you wan[C]na hide it?)
I [G]turn the engine over
and my body just comes alive

[Chorus 2]
Ain't we all just [C]runa[G]ways?
[F]I knew it when I met you,
[C]I'm not gonna let[G] you run[C]awa[G]y
[F]I knew it when I held you,
[C]I wasn't letting g[G]o!

[Outro 1]
