Runaround Sue in Portland

After a day of ukulele and guitar workshops in Portland, Victoria, Portlandians and Melbournians alike joined forces to form the Inaugural Portland Pluckers and Strummers Guitar, Ukulele and Vocal Band and performed their first songs together. Here we are singing and strumming our hearts out on Runaway Sue. (BTW Sue is holding the camera, she's singing her heart out too!) Enjoy!

Here's the chord chart (thanks to Richard G's website) of the song so you can sing and play along too!

RUNAROUND SUE

[C] Here's my story it's sad but true [Am] it's about a girl that I once knew

[Am] This girl would leave me with a broken heart

[F] Now listen people what I'm telling you

[G] Keep away from Runaround Sue

[C] Her amazing lips and the smile on her face

The [Am] touch of her hand and this girl's warm embrace

[F] So if you don't want to cry like I do [G] keep away from Runaround Sue
