Capo 1
[Intro]
C, F, C,  G2X
[Verse 1]
My MaCma mapped out the rFoad that she knows
WhiCch hands you shake and whiGch hands you hold
In my hCand-me-down Mercury, rFeady to roll
SChe knew that I had to gGo
and hCangouFt, maCke lots of noGise
and lCay ouFt latCe with a Gboy
MAmake the mistakes that she maGde 'cause
she knew all FalongG  
[Chorus]
I was already goCneF  
I was already gConeG  
I was already goAmne
LGife is a runaway tCrain u cant wait to jump Gon
C, F, C, G 2X
[Verse 2]
ThCey say the first time wFont ever last
but Cthat didnt stop me the Gfirst time he laughed
all my frCiends tried to warn me the dFay that we met
gCirl dont u lose your heart Gyet
but his dCark eFyes daCred me with Gdanger
and spCarks Ffly like Cflame to a Gpaper
Amfire in his touch burning Gme up
but Still I held FonG  
[Chorus]
cuz I was already CgoneF  
I was already gConeG  
I was already gAmone
lGife is a runaway tCrain you cant wait jumGp on
[Bridge]
The laFst time I say him, wGe packed up my thCings
And he smiFled like the first time he toGld me his name
And we crFied with each other WGe split the bClame
for the parFts that we couldn't chFange
PCicturFes, diCshed and sGocks
It's our whCole liFfe dowCn to one bGox
ThAmere he was waving gooGdbye on the front porch alFoneG  
But I was already goCneF  
I was already goCneG  
I was already gAmoneG

MAmake the mistGakes that she made, liCfe is a runGaway train
My mCama mapped oFut the rCoad that she kGnows
WhCich hands to sFhake, whiCch hands you hGold
In my handAm-me-down Mercury
LiCfe is a runFaway trCain you can't wait to jump Gon
C, F, C, G
