C
Call you up in the middle of the night
Em/B
Like a fire without a light
Am
You were like a blow torch burning
G
I was a key that could use a little turning
C
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
Em/B
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Am
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
G
One more promise I couldn't keep
        F
It seems no one can help[G] me now 
      C
I'm in too deep
          Am
There's no way out
    F                Em           G
This time I have really led myself astray
C
Runaway train never going back
Em/B
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
C
Can you help me remember how to smile
Em/B
Make it all somehow seem worthwhile
Am
How on earth did I get so jaded?
G
Life's mystery seems so faded
C
I can go where no one else can go
Em/B
I know what no one else knows
Am
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
G
With a ticket for a runaway train
   F              G
Everything is cut and dry
    C              Am
Day and night earth and sky
    F     Em               G
Somehow I just dont believe it
C
Runaway train never going back
Em/B
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

-interlude-
C
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Em/B
Like a madman laughing at the rain
Am
A little out of touch a little insane
G
Its just easier than dealing with the pain
C
Runaway train never going back

(Runaway train)
Em/B
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Em/B
Runaway train never coming back

(Runaway train)
Am
Runaway train tearing up the track

(Runaway train)
Am
Runaway train burning in my veins

(Runaway train)
G
Runaway but it always seems the same.
