[Verse 1]
E
  Sit and watch my TV set
                        A
What is on will make it better (will make it better)
E
  I wanna call and ask, what's up?
                       A
Gonna dial, but then I stopped (why don't you call?)

E         C#m     A
  To the end, my friend
            E  C#m      A
Oh what a lie-----, oh what a lie
E       C#m      A
  If I could pretend
             E  C#m     A
If I could lie-----, if I could lie

I run, run, run, run, run away
E         C#m      A      B
Get, get, get, get, get away

    A       B        C#m
But I'll be back someday
A       B        C#m
I'll be back someday


[Verse 2]
E
  I like to read to you at night
                           A
Like to read 'til you feel better (until you're better)
E
  Now's the time for us to begin
                            A
Not the time for us to give in (it's not the time)

Get, get, get, get, get away
  E         C#m      A      B
I run, run, run, run, run away
E         C#m      A      B
Get, get, get, get, get away

    A       B        C#m
But I'll be back someday
A       B        C#m

[Bridge]
E                                   A

           B           E                            A    B
How do you make it go away? (how do you make it go away?)

No I can't stay
