I Ran Chords by Tori Amos

_ _ Okay, so, _ _ _ _ _ um, _ _ this could really be crap.
_ _ I have gotten into this weird 80s thing.
_ _ _ I'm [Cm] _
allowed.
I made [Eb] an album then.
_ [Cm] _ [Gm] So, uh, [Cm] let me think about this little song.
I gotta
get the [Gm] right key.
I did this, I [N] played, um, Taco Hour at the Bonaventure.
Martini
glasses up, everybody.
_ _ _ So, um, I think I got fired for playing songs like this.
They
said, this is absolute trash.
Why are you playing this shit?
And do you know why?
Because
I wanted the hair.
I wanted the hair.
So these boys, um, I always went out with guys that
had hair that I wanted.
_ _ [Cm] _ _ [Ab] If you had big hair, you had a [Bb] chance with me.
_ _ [F] _ Um, [C] ding, ding,
ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Hang on.
I'm a professional.
I'm a professional.
[Bbm] Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Ding, ding.
[Fm] _ [F] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Db] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ [F] _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] I walk along the avenue.
I never thought I'd meet a [Db] girl like you.
Meet a girl like you.
_ [Ab] _ [Bbm] With all the hair and
tawny eyes.
The kind of eyes that [Db] hypnotize me through.
[Ab] _
Hypnotize me through.
_ [Bbm] [Ebm] And I ran.
I ran so [Eb] far away.
_ [Ebm] I just ran.
I ran all [Eb] night and day.
_ Couldn't get [Db] away.
[Bb] _ _
[Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
[Eb] _ [Bbm] _ _ [Eb] _ [Bbm] A cloud
appears above your head.
A beam of light comes [Db] shining down on you. _
Shining down on you.
_ [Bbm] The cloud is moving nearer still.
Aurora borealis [Db] comes and fill.
Aurora comes and fill.
[Eb] And [Gb] I ran.
I ran [Eb] so far away.
_ [Gb] I just ran.
[Ebm]
[Eb] All night and day.
Couldn't get [Fm] away.
[Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bbm] Reach out a hand to touch your face.
You're slowly disappearing [Eb] from my view.
Appearing in my view.
_ [Bbm] Reach out a hand to try again.
I'm floating in a beam of light [Ab] with _
_ _ [Db] _ [Ab] you.
_ And I [Ebm] ran.
I ran so far away.
_ I just ran.
I ran all night and day.
And I ran.
I ran.
I ran away.
_ I ran.
_ I _ _ _ ran.
I _ ran _ away from the guns.
From the guns to soldier [Db] a new ones.
[Ebm] And I ran.
I ran.
I ran.
I ran away.
I just ran.
I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get [Bbm] away from this.
I couldn't [Eb] get away.
_ I couldn't [Bbm] get away. _
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
