Intro:
 Am-  F/C-  C- G  
First Verse:
FAmell past a cheekbone hillF/C  
To a piece of her flCoor.
The hope of the woGrld in an awkward spill.
AmOh she'd lie on her F/Cbed
And stare into haCrsh white light.
And think that her heGart's not right.
'Cause lAmove took her hand like a tF/Chief,
took her heart like a roCbber
and the feelings that scGare her become her relief.
Chorus:
F/CJust let me rCun where I wGant to run
F/CJust let me lCove who I wGant.
F/CJust let me rCun where I wGant to run
F/CJust let me lCove who I wGant.
 Am-  F/C-  C- G  
Second Verse:
In a flash Ama heart is slain.
You have to F/Cask in all this pain
Was your heCart too soft?
Was your lGove in vain?
Was your kAmiss too weak?
Were your F/Ceyes too tight?
And much too yoCung to be in love.
Much too yoGung to be in love.
Chorus:
F/CJust let me rCun where I wGant to run
F/CJust let me lCove who I wGant.
(^ x3)
 Am-  F/C-  C- G  
There are no rF/Cules for this love.
Just keep your hAmead and don't giGve up.
Like all the fF/Cools who play it smart.
Lose your hAmead just for your heGart
Just for your heart...

Intro:

Am F/C C G

- - -

First Verse:

Am F/C

Fell past a cheekbone hill

To a piece of her floor.

The hope of the world in an awkward spill.

Am F/C

Oh she'd lie on her bed

And stare into harsh white light.

And think that her heart's not right.

Am F/C

'Cause love took her hand like a thief,

took her heart like a robber

and the feelings that scare her become her relief.

Chorus:

F/C C G

Just let me run where I want to run

F/C C G

Just let me love who I want.

F/C C G

Just let me run where I want to run

F/C C G

Just let me love who I want.

Am F/C C G

- - -

Second Verse:

In a flash a heart is slain.

F/C

You have to ask in all this pain

Was your heart too soft?

Was your love in vain?

Was your kiss too weak?

F/C

Were your eyes too tight?

And much too young to be in love.

Much too young to be in love.

Chorus:

F/C C G

Just let me run where I want to run

F/C C G

Just let me love who I want.

(^ x3)

Am F/C C G

- - -

F/C

There are no rules for this love.

Am G

Just keep your head and don't give up.

F/C

Like all the fools who play it smart.

Am G

Lose your head just for your heart

Just for your heart...
