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
