Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 I've heard stories and tales about puppets and whales

 but never heard stories of you.

 I've not seen you around in this quiet part of town.

 You've shown up right out of the blue.

 And I've been waiting for someone

 to share my adventures, you seemed quite perfect to me dear,

and did I mention that you seemed quite perfect to me.

(Chorus)

 So come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 Come running, come running

 through rivers with me.

 Oh come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 We'll show them what living should be.

(Verse 2)

 We are pirates at sea with our world at our feet.

 Sailing on waves made of stars.

 A princess needs a friend, where the laughter won't end.

 That's worth more than a prince who can charm.

 And I've been searching for someone who makes life a story,

 and you seem quite perfect to me, dear.

You wont be sorry but you seem quite perfect to me.

(Chorus)

 So come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 Come running, come running

 through rivers with me.

 Oh come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 We'll show them what living should be.

 If things go wrong we'll just rewrite them

 (running, you're running, you're running with me).

 And if demons call we'll stand and fight them.

Running, you're running, you're running with me.

(Chorus)

 Come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 Come running, come running

 through rivers with me.

 Oh come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 Come running, come running

 through rivers with me.

 Come running, come running,

 come running through rivers.

 We'll show them what living should be.

 They've heard stories and tales about puppets and whales,

 and now they'll hear stories of you.
