This is a song called Runaway Train by Soul Asylum.
One, two, three, four.
Call you up in the middle of the night [Em] Like a firefly without a light
flow torch [G] burning I was a key that could use a little turning
couldn't even sleep [Em] So many secrets I couldn't keep
I wouldn't [G] weep One more promise I can keep
help me now [C] I'm in too deep, [Am] there's no way [D] out
really led [G] myself astray

This is a song called Runaway Train by Soul Asylum.
One, two, three, four. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Call you up in the middle of the night [Em] _ Like a firefly without a light
[Am] _ You were there [A] like a flow torch [G] burning I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep [Em] _ So many secrets I couldn't keep
[A] _ I promised myself I wouldn't [G] weep One more promise I can keep
[F] It seems no one can [G]
help me now [C] I'm in too deep, [Am] there's no way [D] out
This time I have [Em]
really led [G] myself astray _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ Runaway train never pulling back [Em] _ Wrong way on a one-way track
[Am] _ [A] Seems like I should be getting somewhere [G] _ Somehow I'm neither here nor there _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Can you help me remember how to [Em] smile _ Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
[Am] _ How on earth did I get so [G] jaded?
_ Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can [Em] go I know what no one else [A] knows
Here I am just drowning in the rain [G] _ With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything is good and dry [D] Day and night, [Am]
earth and sky
[D] Somehow I [Em] just _ don't [G] believe it _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ Runaway train never going [Em] back
Wrong way on a one-way [A] track Seems like I should be getting [G] somewhere
_ Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Bought a ticket for a runaway train [E] _ Like the madman [Em] laughing at the rain
[Am] Little out of touch, little [G] insane It's just easier than dealing with the pain
_ Runaway train never coming [Em] back _ Runaway train tearing up the [Am] track
_ Runaway train burning in my [G] veins I run away but it always seems the [Dm] same
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
