The Killers – Runaways Chords

Blonde hair blowing in the summer wind, blue eyed girl playing in the sand
I’ve been on the trail for a little while
But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand
Teenage rush, she said, ain’t we all just runaways? We got time and that ain’t much

We can’t wait ’till tomorrow, you gotta know that this is real
Baby, why you wanna fight it? It’s the one thing you can’t choose. Oh!

We got engaged on a Friday night, I swore on the head of our unborn child
That I could take care of the three of us
But I’ve got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild

It’s in my blood, you said she might just runaway
Somewhere else, someplace good

We can’t wait ’till tomorrow, you gotta know that this is real
Baby, why you wanna fight it? It’s the one thing you can’t choose.
Let’s take a chance, baby we can’t lose

Ain’t we all just runaways? I knew it when I met you
I’m not gonna let you runaway
I knew it when I held you, I wasn’t letting go

We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams
Hold each other ’till the morning light
We used to laugh, now we only fight, baby are you lonesome now?

At night I come home after they go to sleep
Like a stumbling ghost I haunt this hall
There’s a picture of us on our wedding day
I recognize the girl but I can’t settle in these walls

We can’t wait ’till tomorrow, no we’re caught up in the appeal
Baby, why you wanna hide it? It’s the last thing on my mind (Why you wanna hide it?)
I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive

Ain’t we all just runaways? I knew it when I met you
I’m not gonna let you runaway
I knew it when I held you, I wasn’t letting go

Ain’t we all just runaways?
Yeah, runaways (Ain’t we all just runaways?)
Yeah.
