G 
We ran away from home 
Em 
I picked you up after you called my phone 
C 
Please, leave the rope, 'cause 
D                G Gsus4 G 
I won't let you go 

Everything felt so bizarre 
Em 
I stopped for gas as you cried in the car 
C 
Never again would I 
D                G Gsus4 G 
Let you sleep alone 
 

 
      C             D             G 
That night we held hands on the bridge 
     C            D        G 
And talked about jumping, simply to end it 
    C            D       G         Em 
My fingers made visible my broken heart 
        C               D              G 
With a toothpick you scratched on your arm 
       C       D             G  Gsus4 G 
Hard enough to add to your scars 
 

 
    G 
We sat by the road in the dark 
Em 
Not far away was a dimly lit park 
C 
There, on a bench, we 
D                    G     Gsus4 G 
Shared a bottle and talked 

Death was the topic you chose 
Em 
 You looked cold, so I gave you my coat 
C 
You kissed my cheek and 
      D                G   Gsus4 G 
I've never felt so at home 
 

 
      C          D            G 
That morning we went to the bridge 
     C            D        G 
And talked about jumping, simply to end it 
    C            D       G         Em 
My fingers made visible my broken heart 
      C             D           G 
You showed me the scars on your arm 
       C             D           (G    Gsus4 G) 
But I wished you'd shown me your heart

Outro 
G 
We ran away from home 
Em 
You were the kind that had seemed to let go 
C 
Hold on to me and 
D              G  Gsus4 G 
You won't be alone 

Everything felt so bizarre 
     Em 
But holding your hand felt so right, and so warm 
C 
Never again would you 
D              G   Gsus4 G 
Let me sleep alone 
C 
Never again would I 
D              G Gsus4 G 
Let you feel alo - o - one
