Intro: Gm F Dm C Gm F Dm C Am
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
In the white room with black curtains near the station
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
Black roof country no gold pavements tired starlings
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb
Dawn light smiles on you leaving my contentment
C G Bb A
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
C G Bb C D
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
You said no strings could secure you at the station
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
Platform ticket restless diesels goodbye windows
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
I walked into such a sad time at the station
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb
As I walked out felt my own need just beginning
C G Bb A
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come by
C G Bb C D
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves
Repeat intro: Gm F Dm C Gm F Dm C Am
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb C
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
D C C/B Bb C D C C/B Bb
She's just dressing goodbye windows tired starlings
C G Bb A
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
C G Bb C D
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
Repeat intro: Gm F Dm C Gm F Dm C Am Outro: D C C/B Bb C
