Bbm          Ab           Gb           Bbm
I've heard stories and tales about puppets and whales
                Ab          Gb Ab
but never heard stories of you.
         Bbm        Ab             Gb             Bbm 
I've not seen you around in this quiet part of town.
                Ab                Gb  Ab
You've shown up right out of the blue.


    Bbm   Ab    Gb           Ab
And I've been waiting for someone
   Bbm         Ab         Gb                Ab          Bbm Ab  
to share my adventures, you seemed quite perfect to me dear,
Gb         Ab            Bbm               Ab          Gb Ab 
and did I mention that you seemed quite perfect to me.

Chorus:
        Bbm            Ab
So come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
     Bbm            Ab   
Come running, come running
        Gb           Ab 
through rivers with me.
        Bbm            Ab
Oh come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
      Bbm             Ab            Gb Ab      
We'll show them what living should be.

Verse:
       Bbm         Ab            Gb            Bbm
We are pirates at sea with our world at our feet.
           Ab             Gb  Ab
Sailing on waves made of stars.
      Bbm           Ab                 Gb             Bbm
a princess needs a friend, where the laughter won't end.
                         Ab              Gb Ab
That's worth more than a prince who can charm.


    Bbm   Ab    Gb             Ab           Bbm           Ab
And I've been searching for someone who makes life a story, 
    Gb              Ab          Bbm  Ab
and you seem quite perfect to me, dear.
Gb           Ab         Bbm             Ab          Gb Ab
You wont be sorry but you seem quite perfect to me.

Chorus:
        Bbm            Ab
So come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
     Bbm            Ab   
Come running, come running
        Gb           Ab 
through rivers with me.
        Bbm            Ab
Oh come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
      Bbm             Ab            Gb Ab      
We'll show them what living should be.


   Bbm        Ab           Gb       Ebm
If things go wrong we'll just rewrite them
 Bbm              Ab               Gb            Ab
-running, you're running, you're running with me-.
       Bbm     Ab          Gb         Ab
And if demons call we'll stand and fight them.
Bbm              Ab               Gb           Ebm Ab    
Running, you're running, you're running with me.

Chorus:
        Bbm            Ab
Come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
     Bbm            Ab   
Come running, come running
        Gb           Ab 
through rivers with me.
        Bbm            Ab
Oh come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
     Bbm            Ab   
Come running, come running
        Gb           Ab 
through rivers with me.
        Bbm            Ab
Come running, come running,
     Gb               Ab
come running through rivers.
      Bbm             Ab            Gb Ab      
We'll show them what living should be.


              Bbm          Ab           Gb           Bbm
They've heard stories and tales about puppets and whales,
                     Ab          Gb
and now they'll hear stories of you.
