G       G/f#   Cadd9
                     Let me catch my breath.
G       G/f#   Cadd9
                     This is really hard.
G          G/f#           B7            G
If I start to look like I'm sweating
A                Dsus4
That's 'cause I am.

G       G/f#   Cadd9
                     I'm not good with words.
G       G/f#   Cadd9
                     But that's nothing new.
G       G/f#   B7         G
Still I have to try to explain what I want to do
A       D7sus4
With you...
Am7     D7sus4
With you.
Run away with me.

G                           G/f#                Cadd9
Let me be your ride out of town.
Let me be the place that you hide.
G                               G/f#                 Cadd9
We can make our lives on the go.
Run away with me.
G                      G/f#                Em7
Texas in the summer is cool.
                            Dsus4                    Cadd9
We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac
B7
Looking back,
C    D
Almost ready,
G7
Let's go
Em7     E7
Anywhere.
              Am7                         Dsus4
Get the car packed and throw me the key.
Run away with me.

G       G/f#   Cadd9
                     I know this is fast.
G       G/f#   Cadd9
                    What else can I do?
G           G/f#         B7                      G              A
Call it crazy, but I'm much crazier for you.
D
I have these plans.
I have all these plans,
D7sus4
Of a house that we build on a bay
When we run away.

G                          G/f#              Cadd9
Let me be your ride out of town.
Let me be the place that you hide.
G                               G/f#           Cadd9
We can make our lives on the go.
Run away with me.
G                G/f#                 Em7     
Alabama heat - sign me up.
                                Dsus4            Cadd9
We'll be on the road like some country song.
B7
Won't be long.
C           D
We'll be ready.
G7
Let's go
Em7     E7
Anywhere.
        Am7             D
Get the car packed and throw me the key.
Run away with me.
Cadd9                         G
I'm not trying to make you a wife here,
                                 Cadd9          A
I'm not trying to tie you down.
Cadd9                                 G
I'm just saying there might be a life here -
Cadd9                                       D
A new one as soon as we run,


G                           G/f#               Cadd9
Let me be your ride out of town.
Let me be the place that you hide.
G                               G/f#   Cadd9
We can make our lives on the go.
Run away with me.
G                    G/f#                          Em7        
Mississippi mud - watch me slide
                                Dsus4          Cadd9
We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac,
B7
Looking back.

Let me be the place that you hide.
G                  G/f#                        Cadd9
California dreams here we come 
                   G
Romeo is calling for Juliet

Ready, set

Now you're ready.

Anywhere.
              Am7                                    D

Sorry about the chord spacing. Effort to get it exactly right.
There's probably a few bits where it's not quite right, but I partially worked it 
out from K&L's sheet music,
not just by watching the video of The Spring Standards, so it's not bad!
Enjoy :)
