[Intro]
C
Hello old friend from the road
Em
I wanted to write a note
Bb Am
To let you know that, all in all, it ain't all what it seems
C
I feel like I've hit a low
Em
One I've never hit before
Bb Am
Lately, I been feeling small as the salt in the sea
[Verse 1]
C
Oh, there's so much to do in so little of time
Em
I feel like I fell a little behind
Bb Am
Hold up, Hold up, Hold up
C
It seems so out of reach to place upon the bay
Em
Whoever thought I'd get there anyway?
Bb Am
Hold up, Hold up, Hold up
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em
I find it hard to get
Bb Am
Way too hard to live
C Em
Tell me what you know
Bb Am
Now before I go
[Chorus]
C Em
Oh, blue, I wrote for you
Bb Am
To say I'm gonna run away from home
C Em
Oh, blue, I love you too
Bb Am
But, today, I'm gonna run away from home
[Verse 2]
C
Oh, I weep through the night
Em
Can't find a love who loves me the same or as much as you do
Bb Am
Hold up, Hold up, Hold up
C
Oh, I reach out my hand, open the door
Em
See, I'm more than what everyone tells me
Bb Am
Hold up, Hold up, Hold up
C
See, I'm gettin' tired of the way I been livin'
Em
I'd rather die than to live with these feelings
Bb
Stuck in this world where it's so much to prove
Am
Every win gives you more room to lose
C
It's too many ups and downs on the ride
Em
I'm spendin' all them dark months of time
Bb
Trapped in the lonely, loner life
Am
Lookin' for lover on the night
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em
I find it hard to get
Bb Am
Way too hard to live
C Em
Tell me what you know
Bb Am
Now before I go
[Chorus]
C Em
Oh, blue, I wrote for you
Bb Am
To say I'm gonna run away from home
C Em
Oh, blue, I love you too
Bb Am
But, today, I'm gonna run away from home
[Outro]
C
Away from home
Em
Oh, oh
Bb
Today, I'm gonna run away
Am
Today, I'm gonna run away
