So tired that

Barre all chords in the solo above.
Play chord once at the beginning of the next 4 verses
until *than on line four.
Bought a tic
-ket for a run
-a-way train.
Like a mad-m
an laugh-in'at
the rain.
Lit-tle out
of touch, lit-
le in-sane.
Just easier *
than deal-ing
with the pain.
Chorus 3 to end verses below.
Run-a-way trai
n, nev-er com-
in' back.
Run-a-way trai
n, tear---in'
up the track.
Run-a-way trai
n, burn-in' in
my veins.
Run-a-way, but
it al-ways se
ems the same.

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.
