  \begin{verse}
    \[C] Call you up in the middle of the night
    \[Em] Like a firefly without a light
    \[Am] You were there like a slow torch burning
    \[G] I was a key that could use a little turning
  \end{verse}

  \begin{repeatedchords}
    \begin{verse*}
      \[C] So tired that I couldn't even sleep
      \[Em] So many secrets I couldn't keep
      \[Am] Promised myself I wouldn't weep
      \[G] One more promise I couldn't keep
    \end{verse*}
  \end{repeatedchords}

  \begin{verse*}
    It \[F]seems no one can \[G]help me now
    I'm \[C]in too deep
    There's \[Am]no way out
    \[F]This time I have \[Em]really led my\[G]self astray
  \end{verse*}


  \begin{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 I'm neither here nor there
  \end{chorus}

  \begin{repeatedchords}
    \begin{verse}
      \[C] Can you help me remember how to smile
      \[Em] Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
      \[Am] How on earth did I get so jaded
      \[G] Life's mystery seems so faded
    \end{verse}

    \begin{verse*}
      \[C] I can go where no one else can go
      \[Em] I know what no one else knows
      \[Am] Here I am just drownin' in the rain
      \[G] With a ticket for a runaway train
    \end{verse*}

    \begin{verse*}
      \[F]Everything is \[G]cut and dry
      \[C]Day and night
      \[Am]Eearth and sky
      \[F]Somehow I \[Em]just don't be\[G]lieve it
    \end{verse*}

    \begin{verse}
      \[C] Bought a ticket for a runaway train
      \[Em] Like a madman laughin' at the rain
      \[Am] Little out of touch, little insane
      \[G] Just easier than dealing with the pain
    \end{verse}

    \begin{verse*}
      \[C] Runaway train never comin' back
      \[Em] Runaway train tearin' up the track
      \[Am] Runaway train burnin' in my veins
      \[G] Runaway but it always seems the same
    \end{verse*}
  \end{repeatedchords}
