D
Call you up in the middle of the night
F#m
Like a fire without a light
Bm
You were like a blow torch burning
A
I was a key that could use a little turning
D
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
F#m
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Bm
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
A
One more promise I couldn't keep
G A
It seems no one can help me now
D
I'm in too deep
Bm
There's no way out
G F#m A
This time I have really led myself astray
[Chorus]
D
Runaway train never going back
F#m
Wrong way on a one way track
Bm
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
A
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
D
Can you help me remember how to smile
F#m
Make it all somehow seem worthwhile
Bm
How on earth did I get so jaded?
A
Life's mystery seems so faded
D
I can go where no one else can go
F#m
I know what no one else knows
Bm
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
A
With a ticket for a runaway train
G A
Everything is cut and dry
D Bm
Day and night earth and sky
G F#m A
Somehow I just dont believe it
D
Runaway train never going back
F#m
Wrong way on a one way track
Bm
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
A
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
[Interlude]
D
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
F#m
Like a madman laughing at the rain
Bm
B little out of touch a little insane
A
Its just easier than dealing with the pain
D
Runaway train never going back
F#m
Wrong way on a one way track
Bm
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
A
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
F#m
Runaway train never coming back
Bm
Runaway train tearing up the track
Bm
Runaway train burning in my veins
A
Runaway but it always seems the same.
