Runaround Sue

D
(Oooh) Here's my story it's sad but 
true
G
(Oooh) It's about a girl that I once
 knew
Em
(Oooh) She took my love, then ran 
around
A
(Oooh) With every single guy in town
D
Hey hey, Woooh,
G
Hey hey, woooh,
Em                           A
Hey hey, woooh

[Chorus]
D                                 
She played with my heart, made me 
                    G
question, if I was insane
Em                                
Sue's the prettiest girl in town, 
            A
but she's venom to your veins
D
Heartbreak hotel room, 505
G
I was blinded by love, and the way 
she lied
Em                            A
Not me, no way, but that day she 
fooled me
D
When I caught Sue running around
G                        Em  
She was running around, she was 
running around, she was running 
A
around
       D
She was, she was running around

[Verse 1]
D
Umm, so I said "peace," and I left 
it
G
Can't get mad at me when your 
actions request it
Em
Couldn't even tell me to my face, 
had to text it
A
You can pack your bags, follow signs
 to the exit
D
Yes, move it along please, pronto
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
G
Oh, and by the way, return your keys
 to the condo
Em
If you played at the Apollo
Em                            
You'd be the type of act that I 
   A
would boo off stage while I throw 
you a tomato
D
A tough act to follow
G
But you fooled me, bravo
Em                                
Can't believe I fell for your 
  A
bull, Chicago
D                                 
Can't believe you asked me to 
         G
stay, nah ho
Em                                
I'm out of here with rocket power,
                  A
 babe, Otto

[Chorus]
D                                 
She played with my heart, made me 
                             G
question, if I was insane
Em                                
Sue's the prettiest girl in town, 
                 A
but she's venom to your veins

fooled me
D
When I caught Sue running around
G                           
She was running around, she was 
Em                            
running around, she was running 
      A
around
          D
She was, she was running around

[Verse 2]
D
Well, I should've known she would 
run around
G
Chill for a second, then peace when 
the Summer's down
Em                                
Now how dumb I sound, ever since I
 fell for the apple of my eye?
       A

A
Cupid always keeps his gun around
D                                 
When I smash, she was like a woman
                           G
 from the past
G
A Mary Tyler Moore with more ass
Em
Should've figured something when she
 let me score fast
A
But I was misguided thinking she had
 more class
D
Nah, I couldn't be wronger
G                   Em           
Fuck it anyways, it was time to 
           A
move onward
                 D
I'm tripping no longer
Put her on the streets like a banksy
  G

                   Em              
Cause I was too swanky, and she was
              A
 too skanky

[Chorus]
D                                 
She played with my heart, made me 
                           G
question, if I was insane
Em                                
Sue's the prettiest girl in town, 
                   A

When I caught Sue running around
G                            
She was running around, she was 
Em                            
running around, she was running 
      A
around
         D
She was, she was running around

G                           
She was running around, she was 
Em                            
running around, she was running 
      A
around
              D
She was, she was running around
