          Intro: C (x32010@1)          C (x32010@1)         Call you up in the middle of the night
          C/B (x2555x@1)         Like a firefly without a light
          Am (x02210@1)         You were there like a blowtorch burnin'
          G (320003@1)         I was a key that could use a little turnin'
          C (x32010@1)         So tired that I couldn't even sleep
          C/B (x2555x@1)         So many secrets I couldn't keep
          Am (x02210@1)         Promised myself I wouldn't weep
          G (320003@1)         One more promise I couldn't keep

          F (133211@1)                  G (320003@1)         It seems no one can help me now
               C (x32010@1)                Am (x02210@1)         I'm in too deep there's no way out
          F (133211@1)              Em (022000@1)           G (320003@1)         This time I have really led myself astray

          Chorus:
          C (x32010@1)         Runaway train never going back
          Em (022000@1)         Wrong way on aone (x02210@1)way track
          Am (x02210@1)         Seems like I should be getting somewhere
          G (320003@1)         Somehow I'm neither here nor there

          Verse 2:
          C (x32010@1)         Can you help me remember how to smile
          C/B (x2555x@1)         Make it somehow all seem worthwile
          Am (x02210@1)         How on earth did I get so jaded
          G (320003@1)         Life's mysteries seem so faded
          C (x32010@1)         I can go where no one else can go
          C/B (x2555x@1)         I know what no one else knows
          Am (x02210@1)         Here I am just drowning in the rain
          G (320003@1)         With a ticket for a runaway train

          F (133211@1)                  G (320003@1)         And everything seems cut and dry
          C (x32010@1)            Am (x02210@1)         Day and night, Earth and sky
          F (133211@1)       Em (022000@1)                    G (320003@1)         Somehow I just don't believe it

          Chorus:
          C (x32010@1)         Runaway train never going back
          Em (022000@1)         Wrong way on aone (x02210@1)way track
          Am (x02210@1)         Seems like I should be getting somewhere
          G (320003@1)         Somehow I'm neither here nor there

          C/B (x2555x@1)         Like a madman laughing at the rain
          Am (x02210@1)         Little out of touch little insane
          G (320003@1)         It's just easier than dealing with the pain

          Am (x02210@1)         Runaway train burning in my veins
