C#5 
Run, run, run, Mary, run, run, run, 

Jimmy, run, run, run, Mary, run, run, run, 


C#5                                     
Mary and Jimmy were both very young  
F#5                           
but as much in love As two people could be  
C#5                                        G#5                    C#5          
and all they wanted was to be together and share their love eternally 


     C#5                       F#5  
They went to their folks they told em  
     C#5                    G#5 
that someday soon they?d be wed 
      Bb5                   F5  
Their folks just laughed and called them kids  
F#5 G#5    C#5 
so Mary said 
             F#5                    C#5 
Give us your blessing please don?t make us run away 
             F#5                  C#5       G#5             C#5 
Give us your blessing say you?ll be there on our wedding day  

They wouldn?t have laughed at Mary 

If they could have seen through the door 

But Jimmy was waiting in the car 

While Mary begged once more 

Chorus 

Well as they drove off they were crying 

And nobody knows for sure 

That, that?s why they didn?t see the sign 

That read detour 


D5 (bass: / D5 / A5 / C5 / E5 ) 
Spoken :The next day they found them Mary and Jimmy were dead 

And as their folks knelt beside them in the rain 

They couldn?t help but hear 

The last words that Mary and Jimmy had said 


             G5                    D5 
Give us your blessing please don?t make us run away 
             G5                   D5           A5           D5 
Give us your blessing say you?ll be there on our wedding day 


D5 
Run, run, run, Mary, run, run, run, 
Jimmy, run, run, run, Mary, run, run, run,
