Verse 1

D              Asus4              G5
Blonde hair blowin' in the summer wind
  G         D            Asus4
A blue eyed girl playing in the sand
    D           Asus4       G
I'd been on her trail for a little while
    G            D              Asus4          A       G
But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand


Refrain 1

            Bm           Em                   Asus2     A      G         
The teenage rush she said, "Ain't we all just runaways? We got time" 
               Bm
But that ain't much....


Pre-Chorus 1

         A           G
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
          A                 Bm
You gotta know that this is real,
      G             D/F#
Baby, why you wanna fight it?
         Bm        Amaj7     G          
It's the one thing you can't choose 


Oh!


A-Bm-G(hold)


Verse 2

A        Bm         G
We got engaged on a Friday night
  G            D           Asus4
I swore on the head of our unborn child   
     D            Asus4       G5
That I could take care of the three of us
    G         D           Asus4         A          G
But I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild


Refrain 2
           Bm
It's in my blood
Em                         Asus2   A         G
   She said she might just runaway somewhere else,       
           Bm
Some place good


Pre-Chorus 2

         A           G
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
          A                 Bm
You gotta know that this is real,
      G             D/F#
Baby, why you wanna fight it?
         Bm        Amaj7     G          
It's the one thing you can't choose 
             A                    Asus2
Let's take a chance baby we can't lose


Chorus 1

                  D       Asus4   G
Ain't we all just runaways?
                 G        D             A       D  Asus4  G
I knew it when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runaway
                 G        D        A
I knew it when I held you I wasn't lettin' go


Bridge

           D/F#        G            Bm
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams
          G              D/F#    Em
Hold each other 'til the morning light
   D                     Bm
We used to laugh, now we only fight
Asus2        A        G(hold)
Baby are you lonesome now?


Verse 3

           D         Asus4      G
At night I come home after they go to sleep
       G         D       A
Like a stumbling ghost I haunt these halls
          D          Asus4     G
There's a picture of us on our wedding day
       G        D          Asus4        A        G
I recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls


Pre-Chorus 3

         A           G
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
                 A           Bm
Now we're caught up in the appeal
      G             D/F#  
Baby, why you wanna hide it?
         Bm         Amaj7 G          
It's the last thing on my mind
  Asus2           A           Asus4     A     Asus2
I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive!


Chorus 2

                  D       Asus4   G
Ain't we all just runaways?
                 G        D             A       D  Asus4  G
I knew it when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runaway
                 G        D        A
I knew it when I held you I wasn't lettin' go


Outro

      D

         Asus4    G
Ain't we all just runaways?
G  D A

 D   Asus4   G
Runaway

G  D A
