As
I walk a long, I (Eb)won der
what went wrong with (Db)our love, a love that was so (C)strong.
And as I still walk on, I (Eb)think of the things we’ve done to (Db)geth er
while our hearts were (C)young.
I’m a walk in’ in the rain.
Tears are fall in’ and I feel a pain,
a wish in’ you were here by me
to end this mis er y.
And I (F)won der,
wo wo wo wo (Dm)won der
(F)why,
why why why why (Dm)why
she ran a way
and I (F)won der
where she will (C)stay,
my lit tle (F)run a way,
(Bb)run run run run (F)run a way.

This page shows “Runaway” by Del Shannon in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of Bb at 100 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
