Runaway Train

* Intro: C C C C

CCall you up in the middle of the night
Em/BLike a firefly without a light
AmYou were there like a blowtorch burnin'
GI was a key that could use a little turnin'
CSo tired that I couldn't even sleep
Em/BSo many secrets I couldn't keep
AmPromised myself I wouldn't weep
GOne more promise I couldn't keep

It Fseems no one can Ghelp me now
I'm Cin too deep, there's Amno way out
FThis time I have Emreally led myGself astray

CRunaway train never going back
EmWrong way on a one-way track
AmSeems like I should be getting somewhere
GSomehow I'm neither here nor there

CCan you help me remember how to smile
Em/BMake it somehow all seem worthwhile
AmHow on earth did I get so jaded
GLife's mysteries seem so faded
CI can go where no one else can go
Em/BI know what no one else knows
AmHere I am just drowning in the rain
GWith a ticket for a runaway train

And Feverything seems Gcut and dry
CDay and night, Amearth and sky
FSomehow I Emjust don't beGlieve it

CRunaway train never going back
EmWrong way on a one-way track
AmSeems like I should be getting somewhere
GSomehow I'm neither here nor there
F Em G G

CBought a ticket for a runaway train
Em/BLike a madman laughing at the rain
AmLittle out of touch, little insane
GIt's just easier than dealing with the pain

CRunaway train never going back
EmWrong way on a one-way track
AmSeems like I should be getting somewhere
GSomehow I'm neither here nor there
CRunaway train never coming back
EmRunaway train tearing up the track
AmRunaway train burning in my veins
GI'd runaway but it always seems the same
