Runaway chords by The Afters

Guitar chords with lyrics

Hi everyone! FYI, this is my first tab, so bear with me. This is one of my
absolute favorite songs,
and I couldn't find it anywhere, so I decided to figure it out myself.
It's pretty accurate, although there's a couple of lines I'm not sure about

(i.e. "Looking for somewhere to hide" "It's not too late to turn back")
 and I'm not positive about the bridge, so if anyone has any suggestions, feel
free to let me know, just please be nice. :)

Capo on first fret

Intro-G Em D C x4

          Em
Hear your voice
       G
On the phone
       D
And my heart just stopped
                                Em
When you said you're not going home
           G
Where are you
         D
Are you safe
                   C                   G
Are you trying to escape from what you can't undo
Em                D
Hoping that the world forgets you
Em     G
But I can't
       D
No I won't forget you
G                        D  G
I know you're out there tonight
C

Everywhere that you turn
         G                  D                      Em
Somehow every face is another bridge that you've burned
         G              D
So you think you can't stay
                    C                G
If you could find another life in another place
Em                  D
And hope the world forgets your name
Em     G
But I can't
      D
No I won't forget you

You think you've lost it all
             C               D
And there's nothing left of you
                         Em
There's nowhere you can fall
       C                D
Where love won't catch you
 C               D
Love will catch you
