| | C | Em |
| | Call you up in the mid-dle of the night. | |
| | Em | Am |
| | Like a fire-fly with-out a light. | |
| | Am | G |
| | You were there like a blow-torch burning. | |
| | G |
| | I was a key that could use a lit-tle turn-ing. |
| | C | Em |
| | So tired that I couldn't ev-en sleep. | |
| | Em | Am |
| | So many secrets I couldn't keep. | |
| | Am | G |
| | Promised my-self, I wouldn't weep. | |
| | G |
| | One more promise, I couldn't keep |
| | F | Em |
| | It seems no one can | help me now. |

| | Like a mad-man laugh-in'at the rain. |
| | Am |
| | Lit-tle out of touch, lit-le in-sane. |
| | G | G |
| | Just easier | *than deal-ing with the pain. |
| Chorus 3 to end verses below. |
| | C | Em |
| | Run-a-way train, nev-er com-in' back. | |
| | Em | Am |
| | Run-a-way train, tear---in' up the track. | |
| | Am | G |
| | Run-a-way train, burn-in' in my veins. | |

| Listen to the song for the way these chords are played. There are a |
| lot of notes "picked" out of these chords. Add on and pull off, don't |
| just strum them. Play the lead solo again over this and fade. |
| The lead solo is pretty easy(or appears to be) with nothing fancy. |
