A#
Runaway from all your boredom
Runaway from all your whoredom
     F         D#                   A#
And wave your worries and cares goodbye

All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision
To wave your worries and cares goodbye

Chorus:
        F        D#       A#
It's a maze for rats to try
        F        D#       A#
It's a maze for rats to try
        F
It's a race,
           D#
a race for rats
                   A#
A race for rats to die
        F
It's a race,
           D#
a race for rats
                   A#
A race for rats to die

Sick and tired of Maggie's farm
She's a bitch with broken arms
To wave your worries and cares goodbye

Chorus

        F
It's a race,
           D#
a race for rats
                   A#
A race for rats to die
        F
It's a race,
           D#
a race for rats
                   A#
A race for rats to die

Run away, run away
Run away, run away
Run away, run away
