Am G Dm C
you leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case
Am G Dm
alone on the platform the wind and the rain on a sad and lonely
C
face
RIFF
Am G Dm C
mother will never understand why you had to leave
Am G Dm C
for the answers you seek will never be found at home
Am G Dm C
the love that you need will never be found at home
Am G Dm C
run away turn away run away turn away runaway (TWICE)
Am G Dm C
pushed around and kicked around always a lonely boy
Am G Dm
you were the one that theyd talk about around town as they
C
put u down
Am G Dm C
and as hard as they would try theyd hurt to make you cry
Am G Dm C
but youd never cry to them just to your soul
Am G Dm C
no youd never cry to them just to your soul
Am G Dm C
Run away turn away run away turn away run away (x4)
C Am G Dm
cry boy cry boy cry (x7)
