 F        C         Dm
Well, my heart's a runaway
Dm             C        F
Living by the campfire light
 F        C         Dm
Yeah, my love's a stowaway
 Dm          C         F
Slipping out into the night

Chorus:
         A#     F
But hey, I can feel it
C                F
I don't want to run this time
A#     F       C
I can feel it now
     A#     F
Hey, I can feel it
  A               Dm       A#
Shining like the sun this time
        C
I know now

                Dm      C F
I don't want to run away
                Dm      C F
I don't want to run away

Well, my soul's a castaway
Tired of bein' alone
Yeah, my love gets thrown away
Any way the wind gets blown, oh

Chorus

I don't want to

Dm                   Am
Runaway trains never get no peace
      A#                        C
They keep on running till their engines seize
Dm                     Am
Keep on running and I don't stand still
   A#                     C
I won't know love, no, I never will
     Dm                   Am
And rolling stones never find a home
             A#                      C
'Cause they keep on rolling through life alone
      Dm                       Am
If I keep on rolling down the same old hill
      A#                 C
I'll never know love, I never will

Chorus

                Dm       C F
I don't want to run away
                Dm       C F
I don't want to run away
                Dm       C F
I don't want to run away
                Dm       C F
I don't want to run away
