THE RUNAWAY BROTHERS
by Strangelove
Written by Strangelove
Transcribed by Roger Gunnarsson (boyafraid@hotmail.com)
This song is featured on the selftitled, third Strangelove-album. I
haven't written down any guitartabs, though I haven't figured every bit
out, but all the chords are here. I think it sounds best when you play
it on a keyboard, but guitar will do. Lovely song.
[verse]
C#m B A E
I didn't want to write this song
C#m B D#m G# C#m
becuase I love you and you've been my friend so long
B A E
We were the same when we were young
D#m A/B
living it two as one
We shared our money and our clothes
we shaded the pain that noone else could ever know
A prison cell we made a home
doing it on our own
All thought the scraped and all the narrow escapes
you pulled me through you made me feel like I was not insane
We promised that we'd never change
holding out on the edge
[chorus]
E G#
Today
C#m A
life's a different story
E G#
Today
C#m G#
Sad and yet not sad in a
E G#
way
C#m A
People never do stay the
E G#
same
C#m G# D#m A/H
and the runaway brothers have had their day
[verse]
Remember on your wedding day
I must admit I had the strangest feeling then
Outside the church we took some flak
Both throwing up round the back
But now when we meet up today
it don't seem right that we just don't know what to say
Both stood there staring at our shoes
not knowing what to do
[chorus]
Today
life's a different story
Today
Sad and yet not sad in a
way
People never do stay the same
and the runaway brothers have had their day

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official STRANGELOVE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
