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