E---0--(h)2---3---------------3-|
Chords: Em, D/F#, G, D(but leave in G and just pick from D string up),
C, G/B, Am
Play the chords by picking the base string and either a quick strum or pick run over the
of the chord (I haven't tried to get the exact picking structure). Play the intro 2x.
1st Verse: (Play soft chords with pick runs, not full strum)
Please show me there’s something wrong
That I don’t see in you
Some terrible secret flaw
That no one could excuse
I try to hide you from my mind
And make myself forget
Please don’t try to stay we'll only
Make what’s clean a mess
Chorus: (This chorus is barely picking strings, mostly piano)
Run away girl
Run away now
Em into Intro picking, one time, end on C
Run away girl
2nd Verse: (Full strum)
The way that you smile at me
Isn’t helping much at all
Please try not to laugh it only
Makes me want you more
We both know this could never be
But I can’t let you go
Chorus:
Run away girl
Run away now
Run away girl
Run away now
Bridge:
What if you thought you saw a ghost
A hundred times a day
What if the thing you wanted most
Was impossible to save
Em Cadd9 D Dsus2 ----------Listen for exact timing.
La La La Laaa La La
La La La Laaa La La
La La La La La
Picking run on C, G/B, Am, D (strum once)
Chorus: (Light strumming)
Run away girl
Run away now
Run away girl
Run away now
Run away girl
Run away now
Into picking, end on C
Run away girl
