Run Away Tab

by Super Furry Animals


Hey, here's the Super Furries' take on early 60's Phil Spector pop.  As always, it's 
stuff - I especially love the cheeky "banking details" line - textbook Furries! :o)


Intro:

/    /    /    /    /

"(This song is based on a true story.  Which would be fine,if it wasn't     autobiographical)"


Verse 1:

/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /    /

"I could have told you why.  It would have made me cry, a little.
 I could have told you lies.  It would have made me die, a little.
 I could have told you anything, except the truth which burns my middle".


Chorus 1:

/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /

"-|Ru-u-u-u-un aw-ay-ay.  That's what I did to-day-ay.
--| Ru-u-u-u-un aw-ay-ay.  There's nothing that I could have sa-aid.
 But cry a little".


Verse 2:

Same 12 bars as Verse 1

"You found another love, someone to wipe away your tears.
 I left it all behind of me, never to turn and face my fears.
 We may have fought with teeth and nails, I still recall your banking    details".


Chorus 2:

The first 8 bars mirror those of Chorus 1 (lyrics & chords), then:

/    /    /    /    /    /

"Those that cry and run away-ay, live to cry another da-ay".


Chorus 3:

The first eight bars of Chorus 1 again (lyrics & chords)


Outro:

The song goes up a key:

/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /    /    /
/    /    /  

"-|Ru-u-u-u-un aw-ay-ay.  That's what I did to-day-ay.
--| Ru-u-u-u-un aw-ay-ay.  There's nothing that I could have sa-aid.
 But cry, a little.
 Lie, a little.
 Die, just a little".

Cheers, enjoy!  SFA, ok!!
