Intro:
Bm A Em D Bm A Em D

Bm A Em D
You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case
Bm A Em D
Alone on a platform the wind and the rain on a sad and lo-nely face

Bm A Em D

Bm A Em D
Mother will never understand why you had to leave
Bm A Em D
But the answers you seek will never be found at home
Bm A Em D
the love that you need will never be found at home

Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away
Bm A Em D Bm A Em D
Cry to your soul Cry to your soul
Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Bm A Em D
Pushed around and kicked around always a lonely boy
Bm A Em D
You were the one that theyd talk about around town as they put you down
Bm A Em D
And as hard as they would try theyd hurt to make you cry
Bm A Em D
But you never cried to them just to your soul
Bm A Em D Bm A Em D
You never cried to them just to your soul to your soul

Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Bm A Em D
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
