Mat Kearney - Runaway

[Intro on high e string, 5x]
-0-0-2-2-5-5-2-2-0-0-9-9-7-7-5-5-0-0-2-2-5-5-2-2-0-0-7-7-5-5-4-4-

[Verse 1]
F#m                 D
Tonight you're letting go, under the burning glow
A                  E
We're too young to hold this all on our own
F#m                D
All that came and went riding them by the winds
A                    E
Blowing through the trees, you could feel it on your skin
F#m                D
Walking the lost streets, no one ever shares
A                E
Cry yourself to sleep, waiting on a little prayer
F#m              D
Bags are by the door, hearts are on the floor
A                  E
There's a bottle of tears on the dresser drawer

[Bridge 1]
F#m           D
Nobody knows the trouble we've seen and
A             E
Nobody knows the price of this dream and
F#m              D
Nobody knows what it took to believe
D
Nobody

[Chorus]
            A        F#m      D
She wants to be free, like a runaway, ay ay ay
       A          F#m        D
Trying to believe, gonna find a way, ay ay ay
     A      B#m           D          E
We got just one life, tonight we're running all the lights
           A        D        E
Trying to break free, like a runaway ay ay ay

[Verse 2]
F#m                  D
The road below our wheels, all that we fought to heal
A                     E
You close your eyes and cry, dying for the right to feel
F#m              D
I hear it coming down, oh the sweetest sound
A             E
Of forgotten tears falling on the solid ground

[Bridge 1]
F#m           D
Nobody knows the trouble we've seen and
A             E
Nobody knows the price of this dream and
F#m              D
Nobody knows what it took to believe
D
Nobody

[Chorus]
            A        F#m      D
She wants to be free, like a runaway, ay ay ay
       A           F#m       D
Trying to believe, gonna find a way, ay ay ay
      A     B#m           D           E
We got just one life, tonight we're running all the lights
            A        D       E
Trying to break free, like a runaway ay ay ay

[Bridge 2]
F#m D  A
Oh,  oh,  oh, oh
F#m D  A
Oh,  oh,  oh, oh
          F#m       D     A
We're singing “How did we get this far
F#m      D      A
Riding on a shooting star?”
      F#m       D      A
It's like flying on the wings of God
            D   A
She wants to be free

[Chorus]
            A        F#m      D
She wants to be free, like a runaway, ay ay ay
       A           F#m       D
Trying to believe, gonna find a way, ay ay ay
      A     B#m           D           E
We got just one life, tonight we're running all the lights
            A        D       E
Trying to break free, like a runaway ay ay ay
