[Em] [D]
[C] [G]
[Em] I can't explain why I [C] keep on changing, trying to depend [G] on time, you know, to get you off
of [D] my mind.
[Eb]
[Em] What makes it worse than that, that I can't [C] look away, like watching [G] something die, you
know, holding on to your [D] desire, [Eb] like a [C] runaway train, [B] never think my mind will [Bbm] give a say.
[B] So now I'm telling [E] you, there's nothing left [D] to show,
[C] the sound of a song, [G] some poetry
of glass, [Em] I'm way beyond [D] the road,
[C] for you my [G] heart is beating fast.
[Em]
Sometimes, sometimes there's a moment, when odd [C] things appear brand new, maybe the [G] moment's
been gone, never left [D] the sight, [Eb]
[Em] most everything I touch, seems to [C] fade away, but my dreams
[G] were unmistakable, from the effect of your [D] desire, [Eb] like a [C] runaway train, [B] never in my
mind, [Bb] things are safe.
[B] And now I'm telling [E] you, there's nothing left to [D] show,
[C] the sound of a song, [G] some poetry
of glass,
[Em] I'm way beyond [D] the road,
[C] for you my [G] heart is beating fast.
[E] So if you ever, if you ever change [Bm] your mind, [A]
[C] and did you ever, did you ever find your [Bm] wings
to fly [B] away,
[Em] [D] like a runaway [C] train, [G] like a [Em] runaway train, [D] like a runaway [C] train, [G]
[E] I'm way
beyond [D] the road,
[C] for you my [B] heart is beating fast.
