Killers - Runaways
------------------------------
           jbro1985

Well, this song was released this morning and I haven't stopped listening to it
since, so thought I might as well jot down the chords as I listened!

It's my first tab, but I reckon it's pretty accurate. You decide.

So here goes.

CAPO 1

[Verse]
C      G       F
Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind,
  F     C      G
The blue-eyed girl playing in the sand,
  C      G      F
I'd been on her trail for a little while,
  F      C       G           Am
But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand.

[Bridge]
    C
Teenage rush, she said,
Dm7        G
Ain't we all just runaways?
    Am          C
We got time, but that ain't much,
     G       F
We can't wait...till tomorrow.

[Pre-Chorus]
     G         A      -- 3rd fret, then 5th
You gotta know that this is real baby,
F       C
Why you wanna fight it?
     A  B   C     F      -- 5th fret, 7th, 8th, 1st
It's the one thing you can't choose.
  G A F
Oh!

[Verse]
C      G     F
We got engaged on a Friday night,
  F     C      G
I swore on the head of our unborn child,
   C      G      F
That I could take care of the three of us,
  F     C     G            Am
But I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild.

[Bridge]
      C
It's in my blood,
Dm7           G
She said she might just runaway
     Am        C
Somewhere else, some place good,
     G       F
We can't wait...till tomorrow.

[Pre-Chorus]
     G (3rd fret)   A (5th fret)
You gotta know that this is real baby,
F       C
Why you wanna fight it?
     A  B   C     F
It's the one thing you can't choose,
       G (3rd fret)
Let's take a chance baby we can't lose...

[Chorus]
         C  G  F
Ain't we all just runaways?
         F   C        G
I knew it when I met you, I'm not gonna let you...
 C G F
Runaway!
         F      C       G
I knew it when I held you, I wasn't letting go.

[Middle 8]
      Dm7           Am
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams,
     Dm7
Hold each other till the morning light,
  Am          C
We used to laugh, no we only fight,
G           F
Baby, are you lonesome now?

[Verse]
       C     G     F
That night I come home after they go to sleep,
    F     C    G
Like a stumbling ghost I haunt these halls,
     C     G     F
There's a picture of us on our wedding day,
    F    C     G           F
I recognise the girl but I can't settle in these walls,
     G       F
We can't wait...till tomorrow.

[Pre-Chorus]
         G      C
No, we're caught up in the appeal baby,
F
Why you wanna hide it?
     C     G   F
It's the last thing on my mind,
 G        C      F
I turn the engine over and my body just comes...
G (3rd fret)
Alive!

[Chorus]
         C  G  F
Ain't we all just runaways,
         F    C       G
I knew it when I met you, I'm not gonna let you...
 C G F
Runaway!
         F      C       G
I knew it when I held you, I wasn't letting go,
      C     G    F
Oh Oh oh oh (Ain't we all just runaways,)
   F    C  G
Ye - E - E - eah!
  C     G    F
Run! (Ain't we all just runaways)
   F    C  G
Ye - E - E - eah!

G A C (ring)
