Intro 2x: F C Dm A#
Verso 1:
F C
I can still remember
Dm
The words and what they meant
A#
As we etched them with our fingers
In years of wet cement
F C
Days blurred into each other
Dm
Though everything seemed clear
A#
We cruised along at half speed
But then we shifted gears
Pré-Refrão:
Dm A# F Gm
We ran like vampires from a thousand burning suns
Dm A# C
But even then we should have stayed
Refrão:
Dm A#
But we ran away
F C
Now all my friends gone
Dm A# F C
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Dm A#
Runaway
F C
what are we running from ?
Dm A# F C
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Dm C A#
Where have they gone ?
Verso 2:
F C
Identities assume us
Dm
As nine and five add up
A#
Synchronizing watches
To the seconds that we lost
F C
I looked up and saw you
Dm
I know that you saw me
A#
We froze but for a moment
In empathy
Pré-Refrão:
Dm A# F Gm
I brought down the sky for you but all you did was shrug
Dm A# C
You gave my emptiness away
Refrão:
Dm A#
And you ran away
F C
Now all my friends gone
Dm A# F C
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Dm A#
Runaway
F C
what are we running from ?
Dm A# F C
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Dm C A#
Where have they gone ?
Ponte:
Dm A# F Dm A# C
We're all ok, until the day we're not
Dm A# F Dm A# C
The surface shines, while the inside rots
Dm A# F Dm A# C
We raced the sunset and we almost won
Dm A# F Dm A# C
We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on
Refrão:
Dm A#
And we ran away
F C
Now all my friends gone
Dm A# F C
Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved
Dm A#
Runaway
F C
what are we running from ?
Dm A# F C
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Dm C A#
Where have they gone ?
