Run To You
Bryan Adams
Reckless 1984
Tabbed by : Varad V. Wategaonkar (Mumbai, India)
This is a fabulous song by the great Mr. 18 Til' I Die which was one of his first top
10 hits.
This tab is nearly 100% accurate and I feel only BA can give us a more perfect tab.
Still if you guys find any mistakes or have any suggestions/requests, you are most
welcome to criticise me, and that you can do by mailing me at vvw@indiatimes.com
Capo 2nd fret! Chords are not relative to capo!

Verse 1:
She says her love for me could never die
But that'd change if she ever found out about you and I
Oh - but her love is cold
It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know, 'cause...
Bridge 1:
D
When it gets too much
E
I need to feel your touch
Chorus:
F#m A E B
I'm gonna run to you
F#m A E B
I'm gonna run to you
F#m A E B
Cause when the feelin's right i'm gonna run all night
F#m A E
I'm gonna run to you

Solo :
First both guitars play Part 1, then Guitar 1 plays Part1 & Guitar 2 plays Part 2
Part 1 :
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---11^12--11-----------9^10--9---------7^8--7---------9^10--9---------|
G|--------------11----------------9--------------7---------------9------|
D|------------------11---------------9--------------7---------------9---|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Part 2 :
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---11^13--11-----------9^11--9----------7^9--7---------9^11--9----------|
D|--------------11----------------9---------------7---------------9-------|
A|------------------13---------------11--------------9---------------11---|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Then the chorus is played on and on as the song fades away.
BA while playing live ends this song by breaking into the lead riff, even you could do that.
Enjoy the song - Varad.
