C5
Call you up in the middle of the night
E5
Like a fire without a light
A5
You were like a blow torch burning
G5
I was a key that could use a little turning
C5
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
E5
So many secrets I couldn't keep
A5
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
G5
One more promise I couldn't keep
        F5
It seems no one can help[G] me now 
      C5
I'm in too deep
          A5
There's no way out
    F5                E5           G5
This time I have really led myself astray
C5
Runaway train never going back
E5
Wrong way on a one way track
A5
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G5
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
C5
Can you help me remember how to smile
E5
Make it all somehow seem worthwhile
A5
How on earth did I get so jaded?
G5
Life's mystery seems so faded
C5
I can go where no one else can go
E5
I know what no one else knows
A5
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
G5
With a ticket for a runaway train
   F5              G5
Everything is cut and dry
    C5              A5
Day and night earth and sky
    F5     E5               G5
Somehow I just dont believe it
C5
Runaway train never going back
E5
Wrong way on a one way track
A5
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G5
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

-interlude-
C5
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
E5
Like a madman laughing at the rain
A5
A little out of touch a little insane
G5
Its just easier than dealing with the pain
C5
Runaway train never going back

(Runaway train)
E5
Wrong way on a one way track
A5
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G5
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
E5
Runaway train never coming back

(Runaway train)
A5
Runaway train tearing up the track

(Runaway train)
A5
Runaway train burning in my veins

(Runaway train)
G5
Runaway but it always seems the same.
