Intro
[E] [Em11]
Verse
[E]Well, I guess I could have run [Em11]away
[E]When I saw that look in her [Em11]eyes
[E]But she brought me to my [Em11]knees
[E]Before I had time to [Em11]realize
[E]But I wished I'd never [Em11]turned
[E]To see where she was smiling at [Em11]me
[E]But she lured me to her [Em11]lair
With [E]all the things she promised[Em11] me
Pre-Chorus
[F#m]But if I could[A]
You know I would run [E]away
N.C.
Right now

[E]I can't sleep 'cause [A]she snores like a [D]chainsaw
[E]I can't eat 'cause [A]she can't [D]cook
[E]I can't write, she got [A]all my [D]inspiration
[E]She can't count all the [A]pills [D]I took, yeah

[E] [Em11]
Verse
[E]She threw a leash around my [Em11]neck
[E]And started spending all my [Em11]money

[E]Even though I thought it [Em11]tasted funny
[E]She got me locked inside her house[Em11]
[E]Days and nights and [Em11]holidays
[E]No escape was to be [Em11]found
[E]I tried a thousand billion ways
