          D      C           G     Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
In the white room with black curtains near the station.
                D  C        G        Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
Black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starling
          D  C              G   Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
               D  C           G   Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
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           G     Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
You said no strings could secure you at the stations.
           D  C           G     Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
          D  C           G  Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
       D  C            G   Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
As I walked out felt my own need just beginning.

C                  G             Bb            A 
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
C                   G         Bb    C                  D
I'll wait for you where the shadows run from themselves

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
       D  C            G   Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
Consolation from the old wound now forgotten
       D  C               G   Bb                      D  C  G Bb C 
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
                D  C         G   Bb               D  C  G Bb C 
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
