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