[Verse 1]
Am       Dm        C           G/B     Bb    C    Dm     C
  In the white room with black curtains  near the station
G/B Bb     C     Dm      C        G/B
      Black roof country, no gold pavements,
Bb  C   Dm       C
  tired starlings
G/B
Bb   C   Dm    C         G/B      Bb  C     Dm       C
  Silver horses ran down moonbeams  in your dark eyes
G/B Bb    C     Dm    C       G/B
      Dawnlight smiles on you leaving,
Bb  C   Dm      C
  my contentment

[Chorus]
G/B
Bb C    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

[Verse 2]
         Dm        C        G/B     Bb  C    Dm     C
You said no strings could secure you  at the station
G/B Bb    C    Dm     C         G/B
      Platform ticket, restless diesels,
Bb    C   Dm     C
  goodbye windows
G/B
Bb C       Dm  C       G/B     Bb  C    Dm     C
  I walked into such a sad time  at the station
G/B Bb  C  Dm
      As I walked out,
C        G/B     Bb    C  Dm     C
 felt my own need  just beginning

[Chorus]
G/B
Bb C    C           G              Bb          A
   I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
C        G             Bb      C            D
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves

[Verse 3]
Am       Dm   C        G/B     Bb  C    Dm        C
  At the party she was kindness  in the hard crowd
G/B
Bb   C Dm    C        G/B      Bb   C   Dm    C
  Consolation for the old wound  now forgotten
G/B
Bb   C   Dm    C            G/B    Bb  C    Dm       C
  Yellow tigers crouched in jungles  in her dark eyes
G/B Bb     C     Dm       C        G/B
      She's just dressing, goodbye windows,
Bb  C   Dm       C
  tired starlings

[Chorus]
G/B
Bb C    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
