Jaymay - Youd Rather Run Ukulele Chords


G
Run your fingers through your hair
              C                                   
Let's pick up from where we left off
 G                                              C                                    
Call all your friends, announce the new victory
               G                     D                                               
Once you were sweet to me, knock it off

C
The music doesn't move you, doesn't soothe you
                             G
Doesn't prove you're worth a dime
C
You work 'round the clock, watch it tick and tock
        G              D      
But this isn't your time
C                  G    
Move over son, it's my turn to shine

Was there ever a moment
                   C
One small slice in history
                G
When I took you seriously?

When your belt and your shoes
C                                   G
Did not announce your poor taste so fearlessly?
                      D
'Cause that's news to me

C                      
And you can forget it, I get it
G                           C
I just don't let it get to me
G                                   C
I regret to inform I do not fret or mourn
               G
The way things used to be
                     C                 
It's all in the past now, it's all gone

C                         G   C
And the only way into the sun is walking
                 G
But you'd rather run
             D   C
You'd rather run away

G
The songs he writes are for "dad"
C                                G
The true love lost 'fore he ever had
                                  C
If stories begun "If father loved son"
                          G
We wouldn't be feelin' so bad
                 D
But doesn't everyone?

C
And it's not that I hate you
G                        C
I never loved you enough to hate you
G                                    C
To get even or mad so as not to seem sad
                  G
Just seems ungrateful
C                        G
'Cause I am thankful I'm sad

Maybe we're the same unabashed and unashamed
C                                  G
Then again, I dunno where you came from

You keep carvin' out names
C
First Jamie then James
G
And I can't keep up to restrain you
    D
How come?

C                                      G
We two came together for worst and for better

It's true
C
And the weather is clever
                       G                D
But she's not the only one getting over you
C
It's me, too

C                         G   C
And the only way into the sun is walking
                 G
But you'd rather run
             D   C
You'd rather run away

G                                     C
My god, it's no fun to watch you play dumb
                           G
With your ugly hand on her thigh
C                                     G
And she's nervous too, but politeness eschews
G                     C
The impulse to finger deny
G                         D
Plus, your girlfriend's a spy

C                                            G
And what would she think to look up from her drink
             C                                      
And find you in your sad little vest tryin' hard to undress
G
The girls you sat down next to?
C
She'll think nothing
                      G
She'll be thinking of you

G                                    
I'm glad I don't know the places you go
C                        G
I'm glad for you and for them
C                              G                      C
Let's be discreet if we are to meet on Ludlow ever again
              D
Don't mention Ben

C                                             G
It's funny what you miss, it's funny what you don't
C                                             G                   C
I've thought it all through, the potential to fondly reminisce is this:

I won't

C                         G   C
And the only way into the sun is walking
                 G
But you'd rather run
             D   C
You'd rather run away

G
Don't say we got along
                  C
That's remarkably wrong
                      
It doesn't suggest or imply
G                                 C
The thing about us you don't dare discuss
                   G                 D
We never got along famously, we just tried

C                                              G
I tried to be good, I tried to be gracious and kind
                 C                        G                      D
But working with you has done nothing but prove a total waste of time
 C                             G
'Cause the real curse is your mind

                                     
And sometimes at night I stare at the ceiling
    C                        G
And wonder what's wrong with me

To involve myself with people
                    C               G              D
Who don't know what my true feeling might possibly be

C                                                G
Who latch onto my strength like it's all they've got
C                  
It takes all of my strengths
                      G
And I go through such lengths
             C                   G     C           
To show them it is not what they think they are stealing

C                         G   C
And the only way into the sun is walking
                 G
But you'd rather run
             D   C
You'd rather run away

C                         G   C
Yes, the only way into the sun is walking
                 G
But you'd rather run
             D   C
You'd rather run away
