D
I've thought about it for a while
F
and I've thought about the many miles
G                                      D
but I think it's time that I've gone away
D
the feelings that you have for me
F
have gone away it's plain to see
G                                      D
and it looks to me that your pulling away

Chorus:
C          G
I'm gonna pick it up
C          G            D
I'm gonna pick it up today
C          G
I'm bound pack it up
C          G                  F G
I'm bound pack it up and go away

I've found it hard to say to you
that this is what I have to do
but there is no way that I'm gonna stay
there are so many things you need to know
and I wanna tell you before I go
but it's hard to think of just what to say

Chorus

I'm sorry to leave you all alone
you're sitting silent by the phone
but we'd always known there would come a day
the bus is warm and softly lit
and a hundred people ride in it
I guess I'm just another runaway

Chorus
