The Runaway

F             C/E           G/B      C
Very old and free is this voice I heard
 F/A            Am            G/B     C/E
Echoed in the breeze and the buffalo herds
F/A          Am               G/B             C/E           F
All that I learned from the beasts and these birds is it's home to me
     G/B        C/E                F       C        G         C
And that's all right when they sing "Hooyip, hooyip, hoo hoo"
F         C/E            G/B  C
Burial at sea is this bus stop line
                   F/A         Am             G/B       C/E
According to the customs and creed of this culture, my tribe
    F/A           Am          G/B            C      F
But that was never me, that request was not mine
             C           G/B    Am
I wanted to choke on the rifle smoke
  F               C                G/B        Am
Yeah, I wanted to go down with my right hand broke
              F
Come on, yeah
              C              G/B        C
I wanted to go down with my right hand broke

                F/A               G/B
'Cause in the motorcade, I'm a runaway
          F/A                 G/B
And I'll never change, not tomorrow
      F/A     G/B    F/A     G/B
La da da da da da da da da

F          C/E              G/B    C
Safe and merrily, a life dignified
F/A             Am            G/B    C/E
Rapids on the stream make the wild ride
F/A                 Am           G/B      C
Your life is but a dream if you bide and bide
F                     C             G/B     Am
But I'll be on that boat when the water's white
F                  C             G/B     Am
Yeah, I wanted to learn to love before I die
              F
Come on, yeah
              C             G/B     C
I wanted to learn to love before I die

                F/A               G/B
'Cause in the motorcade, I'm a runaway
          F/A                 G/B
And I'll never change, not tomorrow
      F/A     G/B    F/A     G/B
La da da da da da da da da

                G                        F/A
Somebody said "Hey, is there any end in sight?"
               G/B                       Am     F   G
Somebody said "Hey", to this foolish, fruitless ride

          F/A              G/B
In the motorcade, I'm a runaway
          F/A                G/B
And I'll never change, not tomorrow
          F/A              G/B
In the motorcade, I'm a runaway
          F/A                G/B
And I'll never change, not tomorrow
      F/A     G/B    F/A    G/B
La da da da da da da da da
              F
Come on, yeah
             C               G/B        C
I wanted to go down with my right hand broke
