Run Away

[Em]I've known it for a long time

[D]Daddy wakes up to a [G]drink at night

[Em]Disappearing all night

[C]I don't wanna know where [G]he's been lying

[Em]I know what I wanna do

I wanna [C]runaway, runa[G]way with you[Em]

Gonna grab clothes, six in the [C]mornin', [G]go

"[Am]How [Em]long you [G]lea[D]vin'?"

"Well dad just [Am]don't expect [Em]me back[G] [D]this evening."

Oh it could [Am]take a bit of [Em]time to [G]hea[D]l this

It's been a [B7]long day

Thumb on side of the [Em]roadway, but[C]

I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C] [G]

But I don't wanna [Em]live in his home[Am] [G]

There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C] [G]

I'll just runa[C]way and be on my own [C]ohh, [Em]mmm

[Em]I've never seen my dad cry

[C]Cold as stone in the [G]kitchen light

[Em]I'll tell you it's about time

[C]But I was raised to [G]keep quiet

[Em]And this is what I'm gonna do

Gonna [C]runaway, gonna [G]make that move[Em]

Gonna grab clothes, and when it's [C]mornin', [G]go

"[Am]How [Em]long you [G]lea[D]vin'?"

"Well dad just [Am]don't expect [Em]me back[G] [D]this evening."

Oh it could [Am]take a bit of [Em]time to [G]hea[D]l this

It's been a [B7]long day

Thumb on side of the [Em]roadway, but[C]

I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C] [G]

But I don't wanna [Em]live in his home[Am] [G]

There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C] [G]

I'll just runa[C]way and be on my own [C]ohh, [Em]mmm

[Em]Back pack, and a flat cap turned to the [C]back

Cause I packed my clothes [G]up[Em]

My dad wasn't down with that

plan to [C]attack, intends to show [G]love

[Em]I don't wanna live this way

Gonna [C]take my things and [G]go

[Em]If things change in a matter of days

Could [C]be persuaded to [G]hold up[Am]

And mama was the [Em]same

None of us are [G]saints

I guess that God [D]knows that[Am]

I don't wanna runa[Em]way

And one of these [G]days I might just [D]show that[Am]

Put my home in a [Em]suitcase

Tie both [G]shoe laces and [D]hope that

[B7]Things change but for now I'll leave town

With a [Em]backpack on my [C]shoulder

I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C] [G]

But I don't wanna [Em]live in his home[Am] [G]

There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C] [G]

I'll just runa[C]way and be on my own [C]ohh, [Em]mmm
