Here is the list of all the songs I did upload for UG: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/contribution/3817887-frans.vanuytv/tabs?sort=-date&page=1&per-page=50 [Intro] | Am | Em | F | G | | Am | Em | F | G | G | [Verse 1]
Am              Em
  Yesterday she   stood here with me,

F                       G
  I kissed her mouth, I had her in my hands.

Am                      Em
  That kind of love, it   could last forever

F              G                   G
  and together we made our plans.

F     G           Em   Am
  And then I woke up today,

F              G         Em     Am
  there on the table her letter lay

F                  G             G
  tellin' me she's goin' away.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am            Em
Runaway, boy, have you seen a

F                  G
girl like an angel runnin' in the night.

Am                     Em
  She's run away, boy,   if you see her,

F                    G                 G
  I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.
[Chorus]
       C                    Am
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,

        F          G
she's a runaway, a runaway.

C                      Am
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe

               F             G         G
that she would run away, run   away.

     Am   G      Am        G        G
Run away,   run away,

        Am      Em      F        G
she's a runaway.
[Verse 2]
Am                                 Em
  I walked the streets through the heart of the city,

F                  G
  go to the places where she might be.

Am                           Em
  I see her friends they say   it's a pity,

  F                            G                   G
I get the same thing from everyone that I see.

F           G                 Em       Am
  I'll keep searchin' if it's gotta be

F            G             Em       Am
  and when I find her I'll make her see,

F                    G                 G
  no other man could love her like me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Am            Em
Runaway, boy,   have you seen a

F                  G
girl like an angel runnin' in the night.

Am                     Em
  She's run away, boy,   if you see her,

F                    G                 G
  I'm beggin' you to stop her on sight.
[Chorus]
       C                    Am
If you see her tonight then stop her on sight,

        F          G
she's a runaway, a runaway.

C                      Am
And why she'd leave, I still can't believe

               F             G         G
that she would run away, run   away.

     Am   G      Am        G        G      
Run away,   run away,

        Am          Am
she's a runaway.
