This is a song called Runaway Train by Soul Asylum.
One, two, three, [C] four.
[Em]
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a [Am] light
[A] You were there like a blowtorch [G] burning
I was a kid I could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
[Em] So many secrets I couldn't keep
[A] I promised myself I wouldn't [G] weep
One more promise I can keep
It seems no one can help me now
[C] I'm in too deep, [Am] there's no way out
[G] This time I have [Em] really [G] let myself astray
Runaway train never pouring back
[Em] Wrong way on a one-way track
[A] Seems like I should be getting somewhere
[G] Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile?
[Em] Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
[Am] How on earth did I get so [G] jaded?
Life's mystery seems so [C] faded
I can go when no [Em] one else can go
I know what no one else [A] knows
Here I am just drowning [Am] in the rain
[G] With a ticket for a runaway train
And everything is good and dry
[C] Day and night, [Am] earth and sky
[G] Somehow I [Em] just don't [G] believe it
[C] Runaway train never pouring [Em] back
Wrong way on a one-way [A] track
Seems like I should be getting [G] somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor [F] there
[G]
[C] [Am] [C] Bought [G]
[C] a ticket for a [G] runaway train
[E] Like the [Em] madman laughing at the rain
[Am] A little out of touch, a little insane
[G] It's just easier than dealing with the [C] pain
Runaway train never [G] coming back
Runaway train tearing up the [Am] track
Runaway [A] train burning in my [G] veins
I run away but it always seems the [C] same
Thanks for watching!
One, two, three, [C] four.
[Em]
Call you up in the middle of the night
