Bronski Beat - Small Town Boy
[C#m] [B] [F#m] [E]
[C#m] [B] [F#m] [E]
You [C#m]leave in the morning
With [B]everything you own
In a [F#m]little black [E]case
A[C#m]lone on a platform
The [B]wind and the rain
On a [F#m]sad and lonely [E]face
[C#m] [B] [F#m] [E]
[C#m]Mother will never [B]understand
Why you [F#m]had to l[E]eave
But the [C#m]answers you seek
Will [B]never be found at [F#m]home[E]
The [C#m]love that you need
Will [B]never be found at [F#m]home[E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away.[E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away.[E]
[C#m]Pushed around and [B]kicked around
Always a [F#m]lonely bo[E]y
[C#m]You were the one
That they'd [B]talk about around town
As they [F#m]put you do[E]wn
And as [C#m]hard as they would [B]try
They'd hurt to [F#m]make you cr[E]y
But you [C#m]never cried to [B]them
Just to your [F#m]soul[E]
No you [C#m]never cried to [B]them
Just to your [F#m]soul[E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away.[E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away. [E] x2
[C#m] [B] [F#m] [E]
Cry , boy, cry
[C#m] [B] [F#m] [E]
You [C#m]leave in the morning
With [B]everything you own
In a [F#m]little black [E]case
A[C#m]lone on a platform
The [B]wind and the rain
On a [F#m]sad and [E]lonely [C#m]face[B][F#m][E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away.[E]
Run [C#m]away, turn away, run [B]away, turn away, run [F#m]away. [E] (ad libitum)
Basically play the first melody during the chorus, while the second one is only
for the interlude and the ending.
