Eliza Gilkyson - Runnin' Away
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G
Did you ever see a little mouse running through the furrows
D
D'ya ever see the hole in the ground that he burrows
G C
He's running away, away, away
G D G
From the eagle and the owl and the old hawk-sparrow
Did you ever see the big bird flapping through the woods
D
Squawkin' and a-yawkin' up, something no good
G C
He's running away, away, away
G D G
From the big tom cat that would eat him if he could
CHORUS:
Ah, hurry up, Sinner, make your legs pound
I'm running on the top, I'm running on the ground
C
I'm running away, away, away
G D G
To a place I know where I'll never be found
Did you ever see the tom cat clawing up the oak
D
Heading for the top just as though he was smoke
G C
He's running away, away, away
G D G
From the big hound dog that he just done woke
Did you ever see the hound dog wolfing through the grass
D
With his tail up ahead so he wouldn't be last
G C
He's running away, away, away
G D G
From the big boy aiming with his shotgun blast
CHORUS:
Ah, hurry up, Sinner, make your legs pound
I'm running on the top, I'm running on the ground
C
I'm running away, away, away
G D G
To a place I know where I'll never be found
INSTRUMENTAL: G D G C G D G C G
Did you ever see the big boy running through the trees
D
Scared of his shadow and everything he sees
G C
He's running away, away, away
G D G
Furry devil right behind, gonna bring him to his knees
Now, mean old devil gotta run on too
D
'Cause the almighty hand of the big man moves
G C
Gonna blow him away, away, away
G D G
Everybody gotta pay when the day is through
CHORUS:
Ah, hurry up, Sinner, make your legs pound
I'm running on the top, I'm running on the ground
C
I'm running away, away, away
G D G
To a place I know where I'll never be found
D G
To a place I know where I'll never be found
