Tom: C Intro: C C Call you up in the middle of the night Em/B Like a firefly without a light Am You were there like a slow torch burning G I was a key that could use a little turning C So tired that I couldn't even sleep Em/B So many secrets I couldn't keep Am 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 Am There's no way out F Em G This time I have really led myself astray CHORUS C Runaway train never going back Em/B Wrong way on a one way track Am Seems like I should be getting somewhere G Somehow I'm neither here nor there C Can you help me remember how to smile Em/B Make it somehow all seem worthwhile Am 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 Em/B I know what no one else knows Am Here I am just drownin' in the rain G With a ticket for a runaway train F G And Everything seems cut and dry C Am Day and night, earth and sky F Em G Somehow I just don't believe it CHORUS C Bought a ticket for a runaway train Em/B Like a madman laughin' at the rain Am Little out of touch, little insane G Just easier than dealing with the pain CHORUS C Runaway train never comin' back Em/B Runaway train tearin' up the track Am Runaway train burnin' in my veins G Runaway but it always seems the same
