Runaway Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

play this on the high “e” string five times.

TF♯monight we're letting go, unDadd9der the burning glow

AWe're too young to hold thEis all on our own

F♯mAll that came and went ridDadd9ing them by the winds

ABlowing through the trees, sEhe could feel it on her skin

F♯mWalking the lost streets, nDadd9o one ever shares

ACry yourself to sleep, waitEing on a little prayer

F♯mBags are by the door, hearDadd9ts are on the floor

AThere's a bottle full of teaErs on the dresser drawer

Pre-chorus
