And she never came through here again

And she never came through here again

And if you should see her

She may be old by then

Tell her that I miss her and ask her when

She's ever coming through here again

Nobody's Child

E7
A
As I was slowly passing an orphan's home today
B7
E
I'd stop for just a little while to watch the children play
E7
A
Alone, a boy was standing, and when I asked him why
B7
E
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
E
E7
A
I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
B7
E
Just like a flower, I'm growing wild
E7
A
No mama's arms to hold me, no daddy's smiles
B7
E
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child

E7
A
In every town and village there are places just like this
B7
E
With rows and rows of children, babies in their cribs
E7
A
They've long since stopped their crying 'cause no one ever hears
B7
E
And no one's there to notice them or take away their tears
E
E7
A
Nobody's child, nobody's child
B7
E
Just like a flower, they're growing wild
E7
A
Got no mommies kisses, no daddy's smiles
B7
E
Nobody wants them, they're nobody's child
E
E7
A
Nobody's child, they're nobody's child
B7
E
Just like a flower, they're growing wild
E7
A
No mama's kisses, no daddy's smiles
B7
E
Nobody wants them, they're nobody's child
B7
E
Nobody wants them... they're nobody's child


Runaway

<Del Shannon>
Am
G
As I walk along I wonder
F
What went wrong with our love
E
A love that was so strong
Am
And as I still walk on
G
F
I think of the things we done together
E
While our hearts were young
A
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
F#m
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
A
Wishin' you were here by me
F#m
To end this misery
A
F#m
And I wonder, I won, won, won, won, wonder
A
F#m
Why, a, wa, wa, wa, wa, why she ran away
D
E
And I wonder where she will stay
A
D
A
My little runaway, a-run, run, run, run, runaway
Instrumental verse
A
I'm a-walkin' in the rain
F#m
Tears are fallin' and I feel the pain
A
Wishin' you were here by me
F#m
To end this misery
A
F#m
And I wonder, I won, won, won, won, wonder
A
F#m
Why, a, wa, wa, wa, wa, why she ran away
D
E
And I wonder where she will stay
A
D
A
My little runaway, a-run, run, run, run, runaway
D
A
A-run, run, run, run, runaway ...
