This is my interpretation of 'Runaway' the new 2016 song from Against the Current
and their third release with record label Fueled by Ramen ahead of debut album 'In our bones' out May
2016!
ATC are currently on their Running with the wild things tour of Europe

CHORDS USED: E-A-D-G-B-E
------------ -----------
A# -- 0-1-3-3-3-1
F -- 1-3-3-2-1-1
Dm -- 0-0-0-2-3-1
C -- 3-3-2-0-1-0
Gm -- 3-5-5-3-3-3
NOTE: in some places, you may only want to strum once for the C chord (using it more as a jump from
the chord before to the chord after). Also, during the verses I found it quite difficult to tell if
the F is actually an F or just another Dm but I listed F just for a bit of variation. If you'd rather
play Dm then by all means, go for it.
