She was Eborn in November 1963 - the day that Aldous G#mHuxley died
F#m7 And her mama believed that every man could be free
E/G#So her mama got hA7igh, high, high
E/BAnd her dC7addy marched on Birmingham singing mighty protest songs
Am7 /G
And he pictured all the places where he knew that she'd belong
But he Ffailed and taught her young the Bbonly thing she'd need to carry Bon
NC
He taught her how to
ERun baby run baby C#m7run baby run baby G#m7run B
ERun baby run baby C#m7run baby run baby G#m7run B
Past the A7arms of the familiar and their C7talk of better days
To the A7comfort of the strangers, slipping C7out before they say &quoDt;so lBong"
Baby loves to Erun
She counts out all her money in the taxi on the way to meet her plane
And stares hopeful out the window
at the workers fighting through the pouring rain
She's searching through the stations for an unfamiliar song
And she's thinking 'bout all the places where she knows she still belongs
And she smiles the secret smile because she knows exactly how to carry on
So run baby run baby run baby run baby run
Run baby run baby run baby run baby run
From the old familiar faces and their old familiar ways
To the comfort of the strangers, slipping out before they say "so long"
Baby loves to run
(Same chords as first half of verse)
She's searching through the stations for an unfamiliar song
And she pictures all the places where she knows she still belongs
And she smiles the secret smile that shows she knows exactly how to carry on
So run baby run baby run baby run baby run (repeat to fade)

I think there's actually two electric guitars on the recording, but they're
doing much the same thing as each other. During the verse, they're playing
