[Em] I've known it for a long time
[C]Daddy wakes up to a [D]drink at night
[Em] Disappearing all night
[C]I don't wanna know where [D]he's been lying
[Em] I know what I wanna do
I wanna [C]runaway, run[D]away with yo[Em]u
Gonna grab clothes, six in the [C]mornin', [D]go
"[Am]How [Em]long you [G]leav[D]in'?"
"Well dad just [Am]don't expect me [Em]back this [G]even[D]ing."
Oh it could [Am]take a bit of [Em]time to [G]heal [D]this
It's been a [B7]long day
Thumb on side of the [Em]roadway, but[C]
I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C][G][D]
But I don't wanna [Em]live in his home[C][G][D]
There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C][G][D]
I'll just runa[Em]way and be on my own [C]ohh,[G] mmm[D]
[Em] I've never seen my dad cry
[C]Cold as stone in the [D]kitchen light
[Em] I'll tell you it's about time
[C]But I was raised to [D]keep quiet
[Em] And this is what I'm gonna do
Gonna [C]runaway, gonna [D]make that move[Em]
Gonna grab clothes, and when it's [C]mornin', [D]go
"[Am]How [Em]long you [G]leav[D]in'?"
"Well dad just [Am]don't expect me [Em]back this [G]even[D]ing."
Oh it could [Am]take a bit of [Em]time to [G]heal [D]this
It's been a [B7]long day
Thumb on side of the [Em]roadway, but[C]
I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C][G][D]
But I don't wanna [Em]miss home[C][G][D]
There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C][G][D]
I'll just runa[Em]way and be on my own [C]ohh,[G] mmm[D]
[Em]Back pack, and a flat cap turned to the [C]back
Cause I packed my clothes [D]up[Em]
My dad wasn't down with that plan to [C]attack, intends to [D]show love
[Em] I don't wanna live this way
Gonna [C]take my things and [D]go
[Em] If things change in a matter of days
Could [C]be persuaded to [D]hold up[Am]
And mama was the [Em]same
None of us are [G]saints
I guess that God [D]knows that[Am]
I don't wanna runa[Em]way
And one of these [G]days I might just [D]show that[Am]
Put my home in a [Em]suitcase
Tie both [G]shoe laces and [D]hope that
[B7] Things change but for now I'll leave town
With a [Em]backpack on my [D]shoulder
I love him from the [Em]skin to my bones[C][G][D]
But I don't wanna [Em]miss home[C][G][D]
There's nothing to [Em]say cause he knows[C][G][D]
I'll just runa[Em]way and be on my own [C]ohh,[G] mmm[D][Em]
