[C]
Called you up in the middle of the [Em] night
Like a firefly without a light
[Am] You were like a slow torch burning
[G] I was the key that could use a little [C] turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
[G] So many [Em] secrets I couldn't [A] keep
Promised myself I wouldn't leave
[G] One more promise that I couldn't [F] keep
Seems no one [G] can help me now
[C] I'm in too deep, [Am] there's no way out
[F] This time I [Em] have really let [G] myself astray
[C] Runway train never come [G] back
Runway on a one-way [A] track
Seems like I should [Am] be getting [G] somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[C] Can you help me remember how to smile?
[G] Make it all somehow [Am] worthwhile
I wonder did I get so [G] jaded?
Life's mystery seems so [C] faded
I can go where no one else can [Em] go
I know what no one else [Am] knows
Here I am just drowning in the [G] rain
With a ticket for a runaway [F] train
Everything [G] is cut and dry
[C] Day and night, [Am] earth and sky
[F] Somehow I [Em] just don't [G] believe it
[C] Runway train never come [Em] back
Runway on a one-way [A] track

[G] Like a [C] madman laughing [Em] in the [Am] rain
