[Verse 1]
Em
  I've known it for a long time
C              G
Daddy wakes up to a drink at night
Em
  Disappearing all night
C                  G
I don't wanna know where he's been lying
Em
  I know what I wanna do
      C
Wanna runaway
G
Runaway with you
Em                                  C
  Gonna grab clothes, socks, in the morning,
G
 go

[Pre-Chorus]
Am  Em       G  D
How long you leaving?
              Am           Em           G  D
Well dad just don't expect me back this evening
            Am         Em         G    D
Oh it could take a bit of time to heal this
                B7
It's been a long  day
Thumb on side of the roadway, but
                    Em
I love him from the skin to my bones

[Chorus]
C G                  Em
   But I don't wanna live in his home
C
G                   Em
 There's nothing to say 'cause he knows
C G              Em                  C G
   I'll just runaway and be on my own

[Verse 2]
Em
  I've never seen my dad cry
C              G
Cold as stone, in the kitchen light
Em
  I tell you it's about time
    C            G
But I was raised to keep quiet
Em
  And this is what I'm gonna do
      C        G
Gonna runaway, gonna make that move
Em                                  C
  Gonna grab clothes, and when it's morning,
G
 go

[Pre-Chorus]
Am  Em       G  D
How long you leaving?
              Am           Em           G  D
Well dad just don't expect me back this evening
            Am         Em         G    D
Oh it could take a bit of time to heal this
                B7
It's been a long  day
Thumb on side of the roadway, but
                    Em
I love him from the skin to my bones

[Chorus]
C G                  Em
   But I don't wanna live in his home
C
G                   Em
 There's nothing to say 'cause he knows
C G              Em                  C G
   I'll just runaway and be on my own

[Verse 3]
Em
  Back pack, and a flat cap,
              C
turned to the back
               G
Cause I packed my closet
Em
  My dad was a man without plans
    C            G
But taking turns to show love
Em
  I don't wanna live this way
      C              G
Gonna take my things and go
Em
  If things change in a matter of days
      C            G
Could be persuaded to hold up

[Pre-Chorus]
Am         Em
  And mama was the same
               G
None of us are saints
             D
I guess that god knows that
Am              Em
  I don't wanna runaway
                 G            D
And one of these days I might just show that
Am            Em
  Put my home in a suitcase
         G          D
Tie both shoelaces, and hope that
B7
  Things change, but for now
I leave town with a backpack on my shoulder
                    Em
I love him from the skin to my bones

[Chorus]
C G                  Em
   But I don't wanna live in his home
C
G                   Em
 There's nothing to say 'cause he knows
C G              Em
   I'll just runaway and be on my own
