E B/D# Only a quitter would let it go D A I'm your fool in a one man show E B/D# I was so bitter till you came along D A Set my sails when the tide was low A B We're going down this road, E B With tears in our rearview mirror A B Far from home but in the dark you know E B with me you've got nothing to fear Chorus: E So let's run away B C#m They will have to find another heart to break A E Why don't we just run away? B C#m Never turn around no matter what they say. A We'll find a way! E B When the sun goes down on this town D A There'll be no one left but us. E Just like runaways, B C#m They will have to find some other hearts to break, A Hearts to break. Out in the distance, lost in the fold We trace our steps to a great unknown Bury our toes where the ocean meets the sand We hide ourselves right where we stand We're going down this road With tears in our rear view mirror Far from home, but in the dark, you know With me you've got nothing to fear Chorus E F#m G#m A They won't catch us in the dark! E F#m G#m A Roll like thunder, burn like stars! E F#m G#m A They won't catch us in the dark! E F#m G#m A Roll like thunder, burn like stars! Run away They will have to find another heart to break Heart to break...
