Tonality
C Em Am G F



Intro: C

C
Call you up in the middle of the night
Em
Like a firefly without a light
Am
You were there like a blowtorch burninʼ
G
I was a key that could use a little turninʼ
C
So tired that I couldnʼt even sleep
Em
So many secrets I couldnʼt keep
Am
Promised myself I wouldnʼt weep
G
One more promise I couldnʼt keep

F                    G
It seems no one can help me now
     C                  Am
Iʼm in too deep thereʼs no way out
F                Em             G
This time I have really led myself astray

Chorus:
C
Runaway train never going back
Em
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow Iʼm neither here nor there

Verse:
C
Can you help me remember how to smile
Em
Make it somehow all seem worthwile
Am
How on earth did I get so jaded
G
Lifeʼs mysteries seem so faded
C
I can go where no one else can go
Em
I know what no one else knows
Am
Here I am just drowning 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 donʼt believe it

Chorus:
C
Runaway train never going back
Em
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow Iʼm neither here nor there

Bridge:
C
Got a ticket for a runaway train
Em
Like a madman laughing at the rain
Am
Little out of touch little insane
G
Itʼs just easier than dealing with the pain
C
Runaway train never going back
Em
Wrong way on a one way track
Am
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G
Somehow Iʼm neither here nor there
C
Runaway train never coming back
Em
Runaway train tearing up the track
Am
Runaway train burning in my veins
G
Id runaway but it always seems the same.

Outro: C Em Am G
