Intro: G G D D C Em D G
1)
G
Call you up in the middle of the night
D
Like a firefly without a light
G
You were there like a blowtorch burnin'
D
I was a key that could use a little turnin'
G
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
D
So many secrets I couldn't keep
G
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
D
One more promise I couldn't keep
C D
It seems no one can help me now
G e
I'm in too deep there's no way out
C G D
This time I have really let myself astray
Refrain:
G
Runaway train never going back
D
Wrong way on a one way track
G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
D
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
2)
G
Can you help me remember how to smile
D
Make it somehow all seem worthwile
G
How on earth did I get so jaded
D
Life's mysteries seem so faded
G
I can go where no one else can go
D
I know what no one else knows
G
Here I am just drowning in the rain
D
With a ticket for a runaway train
C D
Everything seems cut and dry
G e
Day and night, earth and sky
C G D
Somehow I just don't believe it
Refrain:
G
Runaway train never going back
D
Wrong way on a one way track
G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
D
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
G
Got a ticket for a runaway train
D
Like a madman laughing at the rain
G
Little out of touch little insane
D
It's just easier than dealing with the pain
G
Runaway train never going back
D
Runaway on a one way track
G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
D
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Em
Runaway train never coming back
D
Runaway train tearing up the track
Em
Runaway train burning in my veins
D
Id runaway but it always seems the same
Fade out... Em
