C   
Here?s my story, it?s sad but true   
Am   
It?s about a girl that I once knew   
F   
She took my love, then ran around   
G   
With every single guy in town   
   
C   
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di   
Am   
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di   
F   
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di   
G   
Hey, hey, oooooooooohhhhh   
   
C   
I guess I should have known it from the very start   
Am   
This girl would leave me with a broken heart   
F   
Now listen people what I'm telling you   
G   
"I keep away from Runaround Sue"   
   
Her amazing lips and the smile from her face   
The touch of her hand and this girl?s warm embrace   
So if you don't want to cry like I do   
Keep away from Runaround Sue.   
   
F   
She like to travel around   
       C   
She?ll love you, then she?ll put you down   
     F   
Now, people let me put you wise   
G                             G7  
She goes out with other guys   
   
And the moral of the story from the guy who knows   
I?ve been in love and my love still grows   
Ask any fool that she ever knew   
they'll say: Keep away from Runaround Sue
