Runaway
Del Shannon
Tab by:oman@fusemail.com
This is great song from the early 60's, if you can find it, I'd
check out the version by Luis Cardenas from the mid 80's. It is
truly a great rendition and really kicks. It was first time I'd
heard the lead, originally play on an organ, played on guitar ,
which is what I tabbed here.

Am G
As I walk along I wonder, what went wrong,
F E
with our love, a love we thought was strong.
Am G
And as I still walk on I think of, the things we done,
F E
together, when our hearts were young.
CHORUS:
A F#m
I'm a walkin' in the rain, tears are fallin' and I feel the pain.
A F#m A
Wishin' you were here by me, to end this misery, and I wonder...
F#m
I wa - wa - wa - wa - wonder.
A F#M D
Why. why - why - why - why - why - she ran away, and I wonder,
E A D E
when she will stay, my little runaway, run-run-run-run-runaway.
LEAD: ( really dirty up your guitar for this, make it mean & nasty )
