[D]I was running crazy, I was running wild.
[G]Living on the edge, yeah I was living in the skies.
[C]My hands starts shaking like the [G]streets of Hollywood.
[D]My mind was wasted, I still did the best I could.
[D]One day I left town with just the shirt on my back.
[G]And a guitar on my shoulder, yeah I wasn't coming back.
[C]I had to break the spell that my [G]heart was under
[D]So I rolled out of town on wheels of thunder.
Em G
And I will never forget what my mother said. She said...
Chorus:
[D5]Run baby run, [C5]cross New York City
[D5]Run baby run, to the [A#5]streets of L[C5].A.
[D5]Run baby run, yeah you [C5]can't slow down.
[A#5]You can never stay [C5]when you're living like a [D5]runaway.
Main riff, only 2nd part
[D]I remember when I was seventeen.
[G]Riding in the back of a black limousine.
[C]I used to stare at the sun, and ask for [G]God to please guide me.
[D]In the right direction.
[D]I didn't know where I was going.
[G]I didn?t know where I was gonna stay.
[C]All I knew is that I was going[G] far far away.
[Em]And it still feels like yesterda[G]y, when he says...
Chorus:
[D5]Run baby run, [C5]cross New York City
[D5]Run baby run, to the [A#5]streets of L[C5].A.
[D5]Run baby run, yeah you [C5]can't slow down.
[A#5]You can never stay [C5]when you're living like a [D5]runaway.
(Guitar solo)
[D]I left each town with a wink and a kiss.
[G]That maybe I'll be back real soon.
[C]A lot of memories from [G]fans like you.
[D]People that made my dreams come true.
[Em]And I can still he[G]ar them saying:
