C5 , F5 , C5 , G5 2X





1ST verse:


     C5                  F5
My Mama mapped out the road that she knows 

   C5                         G5
Which hands you shake and which hands you hold 
 
       C5                     F5
In my hand-me-down Mercury, ready to roll 


 C5                      G5
She knew that I had to go

     C5    F5    C5            G5
and hangout, make lots of noise 

     C5    F5    C5        G5
and lay out late with a boy 

 A5                          G5
Make the mistakes that she made 'cause 
  

             F5          G5
she knew all along


Chorus:


                C5      F5
I was already gone 
 
               C5      G5
I was already gone

                A5
I was already gone
 
 G5                 C5                        G5
Life is a runaway train u cant wait to jump on


C5 , F5 , C5 , G5 2X


2nd Verse:


  C5                      F5
They say the first time wont ever last
  
    C5                      G5
but that didnt stop me the first time he laughed
  
      
         C5                           F5
all my friends tried to warn me the day that we met
 
 C5                          G5
girl dont u lose your heart yet

 
         C5    F5     C5          G5
but his dark eyes dared me with danger
 
      C5    F5        C5          G5
and sparks fly like flame to a paper
 
A5                        G5
fire in his touch burning me up
 
                F5         G5
but Still I held on


 
Chorus:



                  C5         F5
cuz I was already gone
 
               C5       G5
I was already gone

               A5
I was already gone
  
 G5                 C5                     G5
life is a runaway train you cant wait jump on





Bridge:



      F5                   G5                C5
The last time I say him , we packed up my things
          F5                            G5
And he smiled like the first time he told me his name
         F5                    G5            C5
And we cried with each other We split the blame 
           F5                     F5 
for the parts that we couldn't change




 C5    F5     C5         G5
Pictures, dished and socks

           C5     F5     C5         G5
It's our whole life down to one box 

  A5                   G5                         F5       G5
There he was waving goodbye on the front porch alone


                    C5     F5
But I was already gone

                C5       G5
I was already gone

               A5      G5
I was already gone

                F5       G5
I was already gone

                C5
I was already gone





 C5  F5     C5            G5
Hangout, make lots of noise

     C5   F5   C5         G5
And layout late with a boy

 A5          G5                     C5          G5
Make the mistakes that she made, life is a runaway train


    C5           F5       C5             G5
My mama mapped out the road that she knows

  C5             F5        C5             G5
Which hands to shake, which hands you hold

          A5         
In my hand-me-down Mercury

  C5          F5      C5                          G5
Life is a runaway train you can't wait to jump on
