Tonight I Was Your Boy Chords

[Intro]

           G  Cmaj7      G
I tell you I... can visualise it all
C                   Em 
Too real it all se..ems
Am7           C                     G
But once again,   runnin' away with me
Am         C                   G
Once again,  runnin' away with me
F                  C
This couldn't be a dream
                  G   Em G Cmaj7 D
Runnin' away with me
                  G   Em Cmaj7 D
Runnin' away with me

[Verse 1]

      Am                G
And I stop myself for a minute
C
See if my heart's still in it
                         Am
Say a few things just to win it
c            CmaJ7
Funny how it works out, innit?

[Pre-Chorus]

C                Am                     G
And I told her, "Some things have their time
c            Cmaj7
How can I be yours if you're not mine?"
           Am                    G
She said, "They should take this pain
C             D
And give it a name"

[Chorus]

  G        Em     G        C
Tonight, I wish I was your boy

(Run away from me, run away from me)
D
I (Run away from me, run away from me)
  G        Em                C
Tonight, I think I f**ked it royally
D
(Run away from me, run away from me)

(Run away from me, run away from me)

[Verse 2]

Am                  G
Give yourself a new name
C
Change your voice on the train
                             Am7
Have her complain about your fame
C
Tell me that it's all a rigged game

[Pre-Chorus]

              Am                    G
She told me, "Some things just take time
C
How can you be sure if you won't try?"
             Am                   G
She said, "I guess I'll take this pain
C               D
Instead of your name"

[Chorus]

  G        Em7    G        C
Tonight, I wish I was your boy

(Run away from me, run away from me)
D
I (Run away from me, run away from me)
  G        Em                C
Tonight, I think I f**ked it royally
D
(Run away from me, run away from me)

(Run away from me, run away from me)

[Bridge]

                Cmaj7
And it's been replaying on my mind
  B7                        Em7
Unfortunately, I've been to this place in my life
A7
Far too many times
Am7                      D
Sunday's nearly over, so I'll just lie awake
  C        Em              C    D
Tonight, I wish I was your boy, I
  G        Em                C       D
Tonight, I think I f**ked it royally

[Chorus]

      G        Em              C
And tonight, I wish I was your boy

(Run away from me, run away from me)
D
I (Run away from me, run away from me, runnin' away with me)
  G        Em                C
Tonight, I think I f**ked it royally
D
(Run away from me, run away from me)
G
(Run away from me, run away from me, runnin' away with me)

[Outro]

C      D
Runnin' away with me

Runnin' away with me
