In the | white room | with black | curtains | near the | stations. |
F | - | G | Am | C | D | F | - | G | Am | C | D | ||
Blackroof | country, | no gold | pavements | , | tired | starlings, |
F | - | G | Am | C | D | F | - | G | Am | C | D | ||
Silver | horses | run down | moonbeams | in your | dark eyes. |
F | - | G | Am | C | D | F | - | G | Am | C | D | ||
Dawnlight | smiles | on your | leaving | , | my con | tentment. |

I'll | wait in this | place where the | sun never | shines. |
G | D | F | G | A | A | |
Wait in this | place where the | shadows | run from them | selves. |
You said no strings could secure you at the stations. |
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows. |
I walked into such a sad time at the station. |
As I walked out felt my own need just beginning. |
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back. |
I'll wait for you where the shadows run from themselves. |

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd. |
Consolation from the old wound now forgotten. |
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes. |
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings. |
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd, |
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves. |
