INTRO:
C  Am  Em
C  Am  Em


VERSE:
C              Am                         Em
  I was at our old school, sitting in the sun
 G                       C
Waiting for the passing trains
                  Am
Wishing you were here
                     Em
And wishing we could run
 G                     F
Wishing we could run away
                  C                   G
Right across the river in a town so small
                       Am                          F
The leaves are gonna change us when they start to fall
                C                        G
Take us to the city where we'll have it all
       G       G
We'll have it all, oh


CHORUS:
C
Oh, yeah
Em                    Am
I would run away with you now
F                           C
We could do the things we promised 
                Em
We would always do
                   Am
Take the train to Timbuktu
F
We could join the circus

C
Oh, yeah
 Em                        Am
Would you just escape with me now?
F                           C
We could do the things we promised 
                Em
Dreaming wide awake
                 Am
Take me back to yesterday
F                    C  G  Am
We could be the runawaaaaaaaaays, oh
F                    C
We could be the runaways
  G
Away
 Am
Away
      F                    C
Yeah, we could be the runaways
