"Runaway train" by John Stewart chords
Start Jamming...
[F#]
I'm worried about you and I'm worried about me
The curves [E] around [F#] midnight [C#] aren't easy to [F#] see
The flashing [B] red warning
[C#] [G#m] unseen [E] in the rain
[F#] This thing has [E] turned into [B]
a [A] [B] runaway train
[A]
[E] And [F#] [E]
a long distance phone calls, there's a voice on the line
An electrical [B] mileage [C#] here [E] to soften [F#] the time
[B] Dynamite too [D#m]
[C#m] is [B] hooked on a [E] wire
[B] So [E] are the [B]
legs [F#m] [B] of [E] American Flyers
And the black bars and
[F#] [A] gamblers, they [F#] invented the [E]
[B] blues
[F#m] Who [D#m] pay up [E] in blood [C#] when [B] this marker comes [F#]
through
To [C#] try and [E] get off [D#] now, [C#] [G#m] it's about as insane
[B] As those who [E] wave [D#m] lanterns [D#] at the runaway [E]
train
[A] [C#] This thing has [C#m]
turned [D#m] into [A] [D#m] a [E] runaway train
[C#]
[A] [E] [D] While steel rails and [C#] hotlines, [A]
[B] they're always [E] in the news
I [D] have been here [C#m] before, yeah, [F#]
and now [B] it's with [F#] you
[G#m]
And [B] I'm worried [E] about you and I'm worried about me
We're lighting the [B] fuses, yeah, [C#]
[B] we're counting [F#] to three
What are [E] the choices [D#m] [C#m] for [B] those [G#m] who remain
[B]
The [C#] sign of the cross [A]
[D#m] on the [E] runaway [A] train
[E]
This [C#] thing has turned [D#m] into [F#m]
a [E] runaway [A] train
[E]
[C#] Our love has turned [D#m] into [A]
[D#m] a [E] runaway [A] train
[E]
A [C#] [C#m] runaway [A] train, [E]
a runaway train
[F#] [E]
