D                                 
I was running crazy, I was running wild.
G
Living on the edge, yeah I was living in the skies.
C                                G
My hands starts shaking like the streets of Hollywood.
D
My mind was wasted, I still did the best I could.


D
One day I left town with just the shirt on my back.
G
And a guitar on my shoulder, yeah I wasn't coming back.
C                                G
I had to break the spell that my heart was under
D
So I rolled out of town on wheels of thunder.

Em                                         G*
And I will never forget what my mother said. She said...


Chorus:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lita_ford/living_like_a_runaway_crd.html ]
      D5            C5
      Run baby run, cross New York City
      D5                   A#5         C5
      Run baby run, to the streets of L.A.
      D5                     C5
      Run baby run, yeah you can't slow down.
      A#5                C5                        D5
      You can never stay when you're living like a runaway.

*Main riff, only 2nd part*

D
I remember when I was seventeen.
G
Riding in the back of a black limousine.
C                                       G
I used to stare at the sun, and ask for God to please guide me.
D
In the right direction.

D
I didn't know where I was going. 
G
I didn’t know where I was gonna stay.
C                             G
All I knew is that I was going far far away.
Em                              G
And it still feels like yesterday, when he says...

Chorus:

      D5            C5
      Run baby run, cross New York City
      D5                   A#5         C5
      Run baby run, to the streets of L.A.
      D5                     C5
      Run baby run, yeah you can't slow down.
      A#5                C5                        D5
      You can never stay when you're living like a runaway.


[Guitar solo]

D
I left each town with a wink and a kiss.
G
That maybe I'll be back real soon.
C                      G       
A lot of memories from fans like you. 
D
People that made my dreams come true.
Em                G
And I can still hear them saying:


Chorus:

      D5            C5
      Run baby run, cross New York City
      D5                   A#5         C5
      Run baby run, to the streets of L.A.
      D5                     C5
      Run baby run, yeah you can't slow down.

      You can never stay when you're living like a runaway.
