G#        D#        Fm          C#
Another friday night, you call me up on the telephone
G#         D#                   Fm       C#
I tried to tell you you're too good for him
G#            D#             Fm          C#
I guess after all that time, falling for you was inevitable
G#            D#                  Fm         C#
Right now I'm worried about the state you're in

Chorus:
            G#            D#     Fm             C#
But if you want to go home, baby I'll be your chaperone
        G#            D#         Fm        C#
If you want to go home, I'll go back to my bed alone
               G# D#     Fm        C#
Would you run away if I told you I loved you
               G# D#     Fm        C#
Would you run away if I told you I can't
       G#   D#         A#m             C#
And I just want to be more than your friend
              G#  D#     Fm             C#
Would you run away if I told you how I feel

I don't know if you remember
That night in the bar, I was looking at you
Desperately trying to work out where I stand
I know right now, you need
Someone like me, not another lover
But when you're ready for me, here I am

Chorus
               G# D# Fm
Would you run away
               G# D# Fm
Would you run away
               C# G# D#
Don't you run away
