[Intro] D [G A] (x2)
D [G A] D
Outside, a-nother yellow moon,
[G A]
Has punched a hole in the night-time, yes.
D [G A] D
I climb through the window and down to the street,
[G A]
I'm shining like a new dime.
G A
The downtown trains are full,
G A
With all of those Brooklyn girls.
Bm A A
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds.
D [G A] D
Well, you wave your hand and they scatter like crows,
[G A] D
They have nothing that will ever capture your heart.
[G A] D
They're just thorns, without the rose;
[G A]
Be careful of them in the dark.
G A G A
Oh, if I was the one, you chose to be your only one.
Bm A A
Oh baby, can't you hear me now? Can't you hear me now?
[Chorus 1]
D G
Will I see you to-night,
D G
On a downtown train?
D G Em A
Every night it's just the same; you leave me lonely, now.
D [G A] D
I know your window and I know it's late,
[G A]
I know your stairs and your doorway.
D [G A] D
I walk down your street and past your gate,
[G A]
I stand by the light at the four-way.
G A
You watch them as they fall,
G A
Oh baby, they all have heart-attacks.
Bm A A
They stay at the carnival but they'll never win you back.
[Chorus 2]
D G
Will I see you to-night,
D G
On a downtown train?
D G Em A
Where every night, every night, it's just the same, oh baby...
D G
Will I see you to-night,
D G
On a downtown train?
D G Em A
All of my dreams, they fall like rain, oh baby, on a downtown train.
