[VERSE]
D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
In the white room, with black curtains, near the station.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
Silver horses, ran down moonbeams, in your dark eyes.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5
Dawn light smiles, on you leaving, my contentment.
[CHORUS]
C G Bb A
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
C G Bb C D | D N.C. |
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
[VERSE]
D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
You said no strings, could secure you, at the station.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
I walked into, such a sad time, at the station.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5
As I walked out, felt my own need, just beginning.
[CHORUS]
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.

[VERSE]
D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
At the party, she was kindness, in the hard crowd.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
Consolation, for the old wound, now forgotten.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B
Yellow tigers, crouched in jungles, in her dark eyes.
Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5 D5 Csus2 G/B Bb5 C5
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
[CHORUS]
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.
