Intro: G5

          G5
          Call you up in the middle of the night
          E5
          Like a firefly without a light
          C5
          You were there like a blowtorch burnin'
          D5
          I was a key that could use a little turnin'
          G5
          So tired that I couldn't even sleep
          E5
          So many secrets I couldn't keep
          C5
          Promised myself I wouldn't weep
          D5
          One more promise I couldn't keep

          C5                    D5
          It seems no one can help me now
               G5                  E5
          I'm in too deep there's no way out
          C5                   B5             D5
          This time I have really led myself astray

          Chorus:
          G5
          Runaway train never going back
          E5
          Wrong way on a one way track
          C5
          Seems like I should be getting somewhere
          D5
          Somehow I'm neither here nor there

          Verse 2
          Can you help me remember how to smile
          Make it somehow all seem worthwile
          How on earth did I get so jaded
          Life's mysteries seem so faded
          I can go where no one else can go
          I know what no one else knows
          Here I am just drowning in the rain
          With a ticket for a runaway train

          And everything seems cut and dry
          Day and night, Earth and sky
          Somehow I just don't believe it

          Chorus
          
          Bridge:

          G5
          Got a ticket for a runaway train
          E5
          Like a madman laughing at the rain
          C5
          Little out of touch little insane
          D5
          It's just easier than dealing with the pain
          G5
          Runaway train never going back
          E5
          Wrong way on a one way track
          C5
          Seems like I should be getting somewhere
          D5
          Somehow I'm neither here nor there
          G5
          Runaway train never coming back
          E5
          Runaway train tearing up the track
          C5
          Runaway train burning in my veins
          D5
          Id runaway but it always seems the same.
