Verse 1:
D MajorD                  B minorBm
I was just a poor young little ugly thing
D MajorD                B minorBm
Momma kicked me out, just shy of 17
    G+G                   A augmentedA
I was lookin' for love, in the fire, in the flames
     G+G                  A augmentedA
But the only way to learn is to get yourself burned
D MajorD            B minorBm
That's how I became the runaway

Verse 2:
D MajorD                      B minorBm
I gave my hand to a man, he put the ring on me
D MajorD                       B minorBm
He couldn't understand why he wasn't just like me
G+G                  A augmentedA
I should've known by the look in his eyes
G+G
We looked at the same guys
        A augmentedA
That's when I realized

Chorus:
D MajorD
No hands will hold me
B minorBm
I'll always be lonely
G minorGm                 A augmentedA
Is there someone out there who can break
D MajorD
This habit of going
B minorBm
There's no way of knowing
  E minorEm         G minorGm        D MajorD  B minorBm G minorGm
I promise I'll always be your little runaway
A augmentedA      D MajorD
Your little runaway

Verse 3:
D MajorD                       B minorBm
If you're not careful, you'll get your heart broken
D MajorD                 B minorBm
Take me as an example, I'll be a token
G+G             A augmentedA
I used to fall head over feet
G+G
But everyone I loved deceived me
G+G
So, what choice does that leave
A augmentedA      B minorBm
A augmentedA runaway

Verse 4:
D MajorD                       B minorBm
You could say my shadow is the only friend of mine
D MajorD                 B minorBm
But it gets pretty lonely in the nighttime
G+G                  A augmentedA
My shadow is almost as hard to see, oh
G+G                A augmentedA
Almost as hard as it is to love me
D MajorD    B minorBm
A augmentedA runaway

Chorus:
D MajorD
No hands will hold me
B minorBm
I'll always be lonely
G minorGm                 A augmentedA
Is there someone out there who can break
D MajorD
This habit of going
B minorBm
There's no way of knowing
  E minorEm         G minorGm        D MajorD  B minorBm G minorGm
I promise I'll always be your little runaway
A augmentedA      D MajorD
Your little runaway
