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

[G]
[C] a ticket for a runaway train
[G] Like a madman laughing in the [Am] rain
A little out of touch, a little insane
[G] Just easier than dealing with the [C] pain
Runaway train never coming [Em]
back
Wrong way on a one-way [Am] track
Seems like I should be getting [G] somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[C] Runaway train never coming [Em]
back
Runaway train tearing up the [Am] track
Runaway train burning in my [G] veins
A runaway, but it always seems the [C] same
