I had those songs on 45s. I don't know what happened to them, but I'm trying to recapture my teen years. 8)]]> Easy Songs Minotaur https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352098 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352085 Thu, 29 Apr 2010 00:39:11 +0000
I have, though, heard many of those songs. I have been tempted at those infomercials with the bug number of AM Gold hits from the 70's. Still not bit yet.]]> Easy Songs rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352085 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352069 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 21:46:38 +0000
Angie Baby
Soul Makossa
The Israelites
Indiana Wants Me (but I can't go back there)
Which Way You Going Billy?
Me and You and a Dog Named Boo
Seasons in the Sun
Ball of Confusion (that's what the world is)

To name just a few. I feel like I just stepped out ...



If you've ever seen the video for Runaway Train, it has the faces and info about missing kids. Totally makes me teary-eyed. But I digress... one of the kids was found because of the video. And was sooo peed off for being sent back home to "hell". Apparently it was an abusive home the kid ran away from.]]> Easy Songs Minotaur https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352069 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352067 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 21:04:27 +0000 Easy Songs rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-352067 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-351976 Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:36:13 +0000
I just realized after all this time I goofed. After the last chorus and before the bridge is the lead solo and over the chord progression C Em Am G F G C Am F Em G. The strum pattern changes in the middle to a shorter one, but off the top of my head I can't remember. I have to play it to get it. Listen to recording and it's pretty obvious. Sorry about that. :(]]> Easy Songs Minotaur https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-351976 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-351972 Tue, 27 Apr 2010 17:52:01 +0000
Thanks for this, now I just need to get that hang of that F chord. That chord kills me. :D]]> Easy Songs Djanvk https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-351972 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/soul-asylum-runaway-train/#post-37818 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:11:50 +0000 Runaway Train – Soul Asylum Basic strumming pattern: D D U U D U Intro: C Em Am G C Verse 1: C Call you up in the middle of the night Em Like a firefly without a light Am You were there like a blowtorch burnin' G I was a key that could use a little turnin' 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 F G It seems no one can help me now C Am I'm in too deep there's no way out F Em G This time I have really led myself astray 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 Single notes: E |--------------------------| B |--------------------------| G |--------------------------| D |---0---2---0--------------| A |-----------------2---3----| E |--------------------------| Verse 2: 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 mysteries seem so faded C I can go where no one else can go Em I know what no one else knows Am Here I am just drowning in the rain G With a ticket for a runaway train F G And everything seems cut and dry C Am Day and night, Earth and sky F Em G Somehow I just don't believe it 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 Bridge: C Got a ticket for a runaway train Em Like a madman laughing at the rain Am Little out of touch little insane G It's just easier than dealing with the pain Outro: 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 C Runaway train never coming back Em Runaway train tearing up the track Am Runaway train burning in my veins G I'd runaway but it always seems the same.
