Call you up in the middle of the night Like a firefly without light
Am G
You were there like a blowtorch burnin' I was a key that could use a little turnin'
C Em
So tired that I couldn't even sleep So many secrets I couldn't keep
Am G
Promised myself I wouldn't weep One more promise I couldn't keep
F G C Am
It seems no one can help me now I'm in too deep there's no way out
F Em G
This time I have really led myself astray
C Em
Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track
Am G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
C Em
Can you help me remember how to smile Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
Am G
How on earth did I get so jaded Life's mysteries seem so faded
C Em
I can go where no one else can go I know what no one else knows
Am G
Here I am just drowning in the rain With a ticket for a runaway train
F G C Am
Everything seems cut and dry Day and night Earth and sky
F Em G
Somehow I just don't believe it
C Em
Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track
Am G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there

C Em
Bought a ticket for a runaway train Like a mad man laughing at the rain
Am G
Little out of touch little insane It # 17 s just easier than dealing with the pain
C Em
Runaway train never going back Wrong way on a one way track
Am G
Seems like I should be getting somewhere Somehow I'm neither here nor there
C Em
Runaway train never coming back Runaway train tearing up the track
Am G
Runaway train burning in my veins Runaway but it always seems the same
