[F#] Hello, daddy.
[A] Hello, mom.
[B] My name [E] is
[G#m] [F#]
Kristen Stewart and Dakota [Am] Fanning star in the new movie,
The [B] Runaways, about the [E] real-life 70s girl group
led by Joan Jett and Cherie Currie.
Obviously, it is a movie, and so there are a few embellishments.
But I wasn't running out of the theater screaming,
Oh my God, it's so [C#] wrong.
You know what I mean?
The [D] real [B] Runaways were tough, provocative,
sexual, [F#] and only 15 and [Am] 16 years [Fm] old.
We never had to push the envelope.
I mean, we just had to show up.
Right.
[N]
Exactly.
It was everybody [C#] else that was freaked out by stuff.
We [A#] were just being us.
[C] I love you.
It's you.
We're together.
[G]
As [C] the first female band to play aggressive music,
they [Fm] partied like [G] rock stars from one corner of the globe to another.
You've got the management, and you've got the booking agency.
You've got all the people who are supposed to be watching out for you,
and they're the ones that are giving you the drugs.
Why would you even question whether it's wrong?
Then as quickly [Am] as success came, it was [B] gone.
After two years, lead singer [E] Cherie Currie left the group
amidst infighting, jealousy, and self [Em]-destructive behavior.
I took it right to death's door with my drug addiction.
And then right at the last minute, I just, I had this moment of clarity,
and I realized, you know, hey, I don't want this.
I'm not going to let this happen.
The Runaways movie is based on her memoir, Neon [D] Angel.
[Em] These days, Currie is an accomplished moonsaw artist.
[A] You ever want to rock the [E] mic again?
[Dm] Why [A]
not?
I mean, jeez.
I'll give a damn on my reputation.
Joan Jett went on to front Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
and just released a [D] greatest hit [A] CD.
Living in the [B] past is a new [C#m] generation.
[A]
[E] As for the Runaways, Jett believes the band's demise was meant to be.
When I look back, it's like we couldn't have really gone on that much.
You can't be really over 18 and be a [C#] Runaway, or certainly in your 20s,
because now you're of age.
[F#] Who are you running away from?
So I think maybe it was perfect, and it was very, I guess, rock and roll.
