D
Here's my story, it's sad but true 
Bm
It's about a girl that I once knew 
G
She took my love, then ran around 
A
With every single guy in town 
 
D
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di 
Bm
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di 
G
Hey, hey, um-da-da-da-di-di 
A
Hey, hey, oooooooooohhhhh 
 
D
I guess I should have known it from the very start 
Bm
This girl would leave me with a broken heart 
G
Now listen people what I'm telling you 
A
"I keep away from Runaround Sue" 

D
Her amazing lips and the smile from her face 
Bm
The touch of her hand and this girl's warm embrace 
G
So if you don't want to cry like I do 
A
Keep away from Runaround Sue. 
 
G
She like to travel around 
       D
She'll love you, then she'll put you down 
     G
Now, people let me put you wise 
A
She goes out with other guys
 
D
And the moral of the story from the guy who knows 
Bm
I've been in love and my love still grows 
G
Ask any fool that she ever knew 
A
They'll say: Keep away from Runaround Sue
