The Del Fuegos were a garage-style pop band in the 1980s with lead singer Dan Zanes, guitarist Warren Zanes (his brother), bassist Tom Lloyd, drummer Brent Giessmann and keyboardist Br. Cleve. The Boston-based band was signed to a series of respected indie labels, was touted by fans such as Tom Petty, starred in a beer commercial, and gained airplay with "Don't Run Wild" and "I Still Want You" (#87 Hot 100, 1986).
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

Don't Run Wild as written and recorded by The Del Fuegos
>From the album: Boston Mass.
If you have never heard this song, you won't understand how good this really is even though it is incredibly simplistic. However, I am very dissapointed that OLGA has no other Del Fuego's posts, so I am fixing that.
The trick to getting main riff of this song is playing an F# barre chord and alternating playing the low E string open and in the 2nd positon. Quite simple actually!!
Chords:
Verse:
F#BF#E F#BF#G#B

Verse:
Oh baby whats goin' on you don't laugh on the phone like you used to Have I been gone too long Where's the love that I've gotten used to
Pre chorus:
All the good times we had seems my dream might take awhile so baby don't you run don't run wild
Verse:
Trees fly by in a far away car Wonderin' when I'll see you again The TV's on the sound is turned down All the letters that I tried to send
Pre chorus:
All the good times we had seems my dream might take awhile so baby don't you run don't run wild
Chorus:
Don't run wild, Don't run wild, Don't run wild, Don't leave me child
Don't run wild, Don't run wild, Don't run wild, Don't leave me child
Repeat Repeat etc...
