Chord/Tab song: Running Away

I'm adopting some abbreviations for this song because firstly, this song is easier
to play with a pick because there are some special strumming patterns

rring the chord
ddownstroke
uupstroke

(d,u,d, stop)quick downstroke,upstroke then downstroke then silencing the chord

D (d,u,d,u)change to D chord on the 1st 'u' stroke, so the 1st 'd' stroke in the
sequence is still a C chord (very tough to catch this for me, must admit)

NORMALnormal d,u pick strokes
