[D] [C]
I saw you up in the middle of the night [Bm]
Like a fire flower down the line
[Am] You were there like a blowtorch burning [G] I was the key that could use a little turning
[C] So tired that I couldn't even sleep [Bm]
So many secrets I couldn't keep
[Am]
Promised myself I wouldn't leave [G] But one more promise I couldn't keep
[F] It seems no one can [G] help me now [C] I'm in too deep, there's [Am] no way out
[F] This time I have [Em] really let [G] myself lose the grip
[C]
Runaway train never going back [Em]
Wrong way on a one-way track
[Am]
Seems like I should be getting [G] somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[C] Can you help me remember how to smile?
[G]
Think it somehow [Bm] all seemed worthwhile
[Am] Why did I get so jaded?
[G]
Life's mystery seems so bad
[C] I can go where no one else can go [Bm] I know where no one else knows
[Am] Here I am just a drowning brain [G] With a ticket for a runaway train
And [F] everything seems [G] cut and dry [C] Day and night, [Am] earth and sky
[F] Somehow I [Em] just don't [G] believe it
[C]
Runaway train never going back [Em]
Wrong way on a one-way track
[Am]
Seems like I should be getting [G] somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor [C] there

[C]
What'd it take you for a runaway train?
Like a madman laughing at the rain
[Am] A little out of touch, a little insane [G] It's just easier than dealing with the [C] pain
Runaway train never going back [Em]
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] face A runaway, but it always feels the same
