Run Around Tab por Blues Traveler

(Personally, instead of a plain C I like to hold down the G on the E string, just gives it a better sound to me)


G           C            Am       D
Once upon a midnight dearie
G           C            Am       D
I woke with something in my head
G           C            Am       D
I couldn't escape the memory
G           C            Am       D
Of a phone call and of what you said
G           C            Am       D
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
 C            Am       D
I could not believe my eyes
G           C            Am       D
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
G           C            Am       D
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies
G           C            Am       D
Yeah humor me and tell me lies
G           C            Am       D
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
G           C            Am       D
And as we seek so shall we find

G           C            Am       D
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
G           C            Am       D
But not without a certain degree of fear
G           C            Am       D
Of what will be with you and me
G           C            Am       D
I still can see things hopefully


[CHORUS]
G           C            Am       D
But you
G           C            Am       D
Why you wanna give me a run-around
G           C            Am       D
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
G           C            Am       D
When all it does is slow me down
Slow me down

(same repeats throughout song)

G           C
Well all right okay
Am         D
So be that way
G           C
I hope and pray
              Am        D
That there's something left to say

[CHORUS] x2
G           C            Am       D
But you
G           C            Am       D
Why you wanna give me a run-around
G           C            Am       D
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
G           C            Am       D
When all it does is slow me down
Slow me down
