[Verse 1]
Am              Em
  Yesterday she   stood here with me,
F                       G
  I kissed her mouth, I had her in my hands.
Am                      Em
  That kind of love, it   could last forever
F              G                   G
  and together we made our plans.
F     G           Em   Am
  And then I woke up today,
F              G         Em     Am
  there on the table her letter lay
F                  G             G
  tellin' me she's goin' away.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am            Em
Runaway, boy, have you seen a
F                  G
girl like an angel runnin' in the night.
Am                     Em
  She's run away, boy,   if you see her,
F                    G                 G
  I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.

[Chorus]
       C                    Am
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,
        F          G
she's a runaway, a runaway.
C                      Am
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe
               F             G         G
that she would run away, run   away.
     Am   G      Am        G        G
Run away,   run away,
        Am      Em      F        G
she's a runaway.

[Verse 2]
Am                                 Em
  I walked the streets through the heart of the city,
F                  G
  go to the places where she might be.
Am                           Em
  I see her friends they say   it's a pity,
  F                            G                   G
I get the same thing from everyone that I see.
F           G                 Em       Am
  I'll keep searchin' if it's gotta be
F            G             Em       Am
  and when I find her I'll make her see,
F                    G                 G
  no other man could love her like me.

[Pre-Chorus]
Am            Em
Runaway, boy,   have you seen a
F                  G
girl like an angel runnin' in the night.
Am                     Em
  She's run away, boy,   if you see her,
F                    G                 G
  I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.

[Chorus]
       C                    Am
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,
        F          G
she's a runaway, a runaway.
C                      Am
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe
               F             G         G
that she would run away, run   away.
     Am   G      Am        G        G      
Run away,   run away,
        Am          Am
she's a runaway.
