Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Pipe down give me a cigarette

There's no use hanging on

Hanging on to a false security

And this mother fucker won't know I'm gone she said

In the car she was oh so serious

One hug and a kiss goodbye

Look for me when you watch TV

And don't tell a soul if they look for me she said

I'm running away

I'm running away

By the door watch a two-page novel and

Four years summed up so fast

Hope you're happy with whoever you settle with

And I'm so sorry that it ended like this she said

Can't believe that I'm really doing this

Wish me luck but please don't call

This means more to me than you could ever know

And this town's got nothing left at all she said

I'm running away

I'm running away

I'm running away

I'm running away

And I thought that I knew everything

(Guess I didn't know much at all)

In my mind I know I'd never do that again

All alone with a bunch of memories

(I'm living by a constant tragedy)

And a bunch of pictures that I know my mind can't carry there alone

Pick me up outside the fire escape

We can catch the midnight train

Sell your car, we won't need it anyway

And if we can't walk we can always run she said

Left a note on a bad that was never made

Read more like a thank you card

I know you're there if I ever need anyone

And I'm so sorry that I let you down I said

I'm running away

I'm running away

I'm running away

I'm running away

If you want to play what Erik plays hit the

chord once then alternately pick the top three strings of that chord.

When he changes chord he follows the root

note for example for his change from

Em to G he hits 2nd fret on the 6th string and then the 3rd fret to create the

first note of the chord.
