Run - Snow Patrol (Bangor Ukes Version)
Verse 1
I'll sing it [Am] one last time for [G] you - then we [Am] really have to [G] go,
You've been the [Am] only thing that's [G] right - in all l've [Am] done [G]
And I can [Am] barely look at [G] you - but every [Am] single time I do [G]
I know we'll [Am] make it anywhere [G] away from here [Am][G]
Chorus
[C] Light up, light up, as if you [G] have a choice
Even if you cannot [Am] hear my voice, I’ll be right beside you [F] dear
[C] Louder, louder, and we'll run [G] for our lives,
I can hardly speak I under-[Am]stand, why you can't raise your voice to [F] say
Verse 2
To think I [Am] might not see those [G] eyes - it makes it [Am] so hard not to [G] cry
And as we [Am] say our long good-[G]byes I nearly [Am] do [G]
Chorus
[C] Slower, slower we don't have [G] time for that
All I want is to find an [Am] easier way, to get out of our little [F] heads [C]
Have heart, my dear, we're bound to [G] be afraid
Even if its just for [Am] a few days, makin' up for all of this [F] mess
Chorus (voices & Instruments)
Chorus (Acapella)
Signing and Strum only
[C] Light up, light up, as if you [G] have a choice
Even if you cannot [Am] hear my voice, I’ll be right beside you [F] dear
