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