I'm gonna tell a story and it's sad but true
E
About a girl that I once knew
F#
She took my love then ran around
With any other single guy in town
B G#m
I should have known it from the very start
E
This girl will leave me with a broken heart
F#
Now listen people what I'm telling you
A-keep away from-a runaround Sue
WOAH WOAH WOAH: |B| |B| |G#m| |G#m| |E| |E| |F#| |F#|

I miss her lips and the smile on her face

The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace
F#
So if you don't wanna cry like I do
A-keep away from-a runaround Sue

She likes to travel around
B
She'll love you then she'll put you down
E
Now people let me put you wise

She goes out with other guys
