Genevieve Stokes - Running Away

[Chorus]
F G Am
Couldn’t see you coming
C E F
I was always running away
Fm C
You hit me out of nowhere
G
Will you stay?

[Verse]
F
So conflicted
G
This shit doesn’t make sense
Am
I was lifted
C
And now I’m just on the fence
F
Want to feel limitless, but there’s nothing left
G
Just a sorrow that I can’t dissect
Am
Your eyes were filled with emptiness
C
I wish that I could miss them less

[Pre-chorus]
F G
But that’s overdue, never opened up
Am
What you got to lose?
C
I wanted you
F
I still want you bad
G Am C
Something that I never will have

[Chorus]
F G Am
Couldn’t see you coming
C E F
I was always running away
Fm C
You hit me out of nowhere
G
Will you stay?

[Bridge]
F G Am
And you’re nothing but the things that I tell myself
C G
Something’s telling me that you know me well
F G Am
But maybe I just see what I want to see
C
The feeling’s killing me

F G A
And I’m nothing but the things that I tell myself
C F
Lie and think I’m special just like everybody else
G Am
But something in the water has been tempting me
C
You float so easily

[Chorus]
F G Am
Couldn’t see you coming
C E F
I was always running away
Fm C
You hit me out of nowhere
G
Will you stay?

F G A
Couldn’t see you coming
C E F
I was always running away (couldn’t see you, running)
Fm C
You hit me out of nowhere
G
Will you stay?

F Fm F

[Outro]
C
Be brutally honest
E
Just like you promised
F
Are you running away?
C
Be brutally honest
E
Is this what we wanted
F Fm
Or are we running away?
Cmaj7 E F
Away from love
Fm
I’m scared of love
C E F
Away from love
(Fm)
I’m scared of us
