Sheryl Crow - Run, Baby, Run
No Capo
[Verse 1]
She was Eborn in November 1963
The day Aldous HuxlG#mey died
 F#mAnd her mama believed
That every F#mman could be free
So her mA7ama got high, high, high
[Pre-Chorus]
And her C7daddy marched on Birmingham
Singing C7mighty protest songs
 Am7And he pictured all the places
Where he kAm7new that she belonged
But he F7failed and taught her young
The Bbonly thing she'd need to carry B7on
   N.C.
He taught her how to
[Chorus]
ERun baby run baby rC#mun baby run 
Baby rG#mun B  
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run
Baby rG#munB  
Past the Aarms of the familiar
And their Ctalk of better days
To the Acomfort of the strangers
Slipping Cout before they say
So DlongB  
Baby loves to Erun
[Verse 2]
She Ecounts out all her money
In the taxi on the way to meet her G#mplane
And stares F#mhopeful out the window
At the F#mworkers fighting
Through the pourinA7g rain
[Pre-Chorus]
And she's C7searching through the stations
For an C7unfamiliar song
And she's Am7thinking about the places
Where she Am7knows she still belongs
 F7She smiles the secret smile
And sure she Bbknows exactly how
To carry B7on
[Chorus]
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run 
Baby rG#mun B  
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run 
Baby rG#mun B  
From their Aold familiar faces 
and their Cold familiar ways
To the Acomfort of the strangers
Slipping Cout before they say
So lDongB  
Baby loves to Erun
[Instrumental]
E  G#m  F#m  A7
[Pre-Chorus]
And she's C7searching through the stations
For an C7unfamiliar song
And she Am7pictures all the places
Where she Am7knows she still belongs
And she F7smiles the secret smile
Because she Bbknows exactly how
To carry B7on
[Outro]
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run 
Baby rG#mun B  
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run
Baby rG#munB  
So Erun baby run baby rC#mun baby run

Baby rG#mun               B
