Verse 1:
[Em] I've known it for a long time
[D] Daddy wakes up to a [G] drink at night
[Em] Disappearing all night
[C] I don't wanna know where [G] he's been lying
[Em] I know what I wanna do
I wanna [C] runaway, runa[G] way with you[Em]
Gonna grab clothes, six in the [C] mornin', [G] go
(Pre-Hook)
"[Am] How [Em] long you [G] lea[D] vin'?"
"Well dad just [Am] don't expect [Em] me back[G] [D] this evening."
Oh it could [Am] take a bit of [Em] time to [G] hea[D] l this
It's been a [B7] long day
Thumb on side of the [Em] roadway, but[C]
(Hook)
I love him from the [Em] skin to my bones[C] [G]
But I don't wanna [Em] live in his home[Am] [G]
There's nothing to [Em] say cause he knows[C] [G]
I'll just runa[C] way and be on my own [C] ohh, [Em] mmm
Verse 2:
[Em] I've never seen my dad cry
[C] Cold as stone in the [G] kitchen light
[Em] I'll tell you it's about time
[C] But I was raised to [G] keep quiet
[Em] And this is what I'm gonna do
Gonna [C] runaway, gonna [G] make that move[Em]
Gonna grab clothes, and when it's [C] mornin', [G] go
(Pre-Hook)
"[Am] How [Em] long you [G] lea[D] vin'?"
"Well dad just [Am] don't expect [Em] me back[G] [D] this evening."
Oh it could [Am] take a bit of [Em] time to [G] hea[D] l this
It's been a [B7] long day
Thumb on side of the [Em] roadway, but[C]
(Hook)

I'll just runa[C] way and be on my own [C] ohh, [Em] mmm
Verse 3:
[Em] Back pack, and a flat cap turned to the [C] back
Cause I packed my clothes [G] up[Em]
My dad wasn't down with that plan to [C] attack, intends to show [G] love
[Em] I don't wanna live this way
Gonna [C] take my things and [G] go
[Em] If things change in a matter of days
Could [C] be persuaded to [G] hold up[Am]
And mama was the [Em] same
None of us are [G] saints
I guess that God [D] knows that[Am]
I don't wanna runa[Em] way
And one of these [G] days I might just [D] show that[Am]
Put my home in a [Em] suitcase
Tie both [G] shoe laces and [D] hope that
[B7] Things change but for now I'll leave town
With a [Em] backpack on my [C] shoulder
(Hook)
I love him from the [Em] skin to my bones[C] [G]
But I don't wanna [Em] live in his home[Am] [G]
There's nothing to [Em] say cause he knows[C] [G]
I'll just runa[C] way and be on my own [C] ohh, [Em] mmm
