Intro: Bbm


Verse 1:

Bbm                 G#                          F#                            F7
As I walk along, I wonder what went wrong, with our love, a love that was so strong.
Bbm                        G#                             F#                               F7
And as I still walk on, I think of, the things we've done together, while our hearts were young


Chorus 1:
Bb                           Gm
I'm out walking in the rain, tears are falling and I feel the pain
Bb                            Gm
Wishing you were here by me, to end this misery
      Bb                     Gm
And I wonder, I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Bb                Gm
Why? wh-wh-wh-wha-why, she ran away

      D#                      F7
And I wonder, where she will stay?
          Bb        D#                   Bb       F7
My little runaway, run, run, run, run, runaway.


[Instrumental Break over verse progression]


Chorus 2:

Bb                           Gm
I'm out walking in the rain, tears are falling and I feel the pain
Bb                            Gm
Wishing you were here by me, to end this misery
      Bb                     Gm
And I wonder, I wa-wa-wa-wa-wonder
Bb                Gm
Why? wh-wh-wh-wha-why, she ran away

      D#                      F7
And I wonder, where she will stay?
          Bb        D#                   Bb
My little runaway, run, run, run, run, runaway.

D#                   Bb
Run, run, run, run, runaway
D#                   Bb
Run, run, run, run, runaway...
