Intro D C G D D Headlights on the ceiling as she pulls into the drive C She never says she's coming, she never says goodbye G D She's gonna bring the sunshine and she's gonna bring the rain C G D Its like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train D When I was a youngin, my momma used to pray C That I'd find me a Christian girl and settle down someday G D But the devils at the front door and she's calling out my name C G C Its like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train Chorus: Bm A G D Runaway train coming down the track Bm A G D Runaway train it don't come back D Yeah I know what she's doing but right now I don't care C She can be Delilah to cut off all my hair G D Woman's got a hold on me ... I just can't explain C G D Its like I'm standing at the station and I'm waiting on a runaway train Chorus Bm A G D Runaway train coming down the track Bm A G D Runaway train it don't come back D In the morning when I wake and find that woman gone C I will swear this time that I'm finally moving on G D Deep down in my heart I know nothings gonna change C G D And I'll be standing at the station and waiting on a runaway train Chorus Bm A G D Runaway train coming down the track Bm A G D Runaway train it don't come back
