[Start]

[Intro]
Eb Ab Bb Eb Ab Bb Eb
■  ■  ■  ■  ■  ■  ■ 
Ab              Bbsus4 Eb  
Outside another yellow moon


[Verse]
    Ab                    Bbsus4    Eb 
Has punched a hole in the nighttime yes
  Ab                       Bbsus4       Eb    
I climb through the window and down the street
Ab                 Bbsus4   Ab
I'm shining like a new dime ■ 
    Bbsus4              Bb  
The downtown trains are full
     Ab           Bbsus4        
With ■  all those Brooklyn girls
Cm7              Bb                                  Eb
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds ■ 
                   Ab            Bbsus4       Eb   
Well you wave your hand and they scatter like crows
          Ab                Bb           Eb        
They have nothing that will ever capture your heart
Ab                              Eb  
They're just thorns without the rose
   Ab         Bb          Ab  
Be careful of them in the dark
        Bb         
Oh if I was the one
Ab                        Bb 
You chose to be your only one
        Cm           Cm7         Bb                   Eb 
Oh baby ■  can't you hear me now ■  can't you hear me now


[Chorus]
               Ab     
Will I see you tonight
Eb               Ab   
■  On a downtown train
Eb Ab                             Fm
■  Every night it's just the same ■ 
Bb           Eb        
You leave me lonely now


[Verse]
            Ab         Bbsus4      Eb  
I know your window and I know it's late
       Ab                   Eb     
I know your stairs and your doorway
            Ab              Bbsus4         Eb
I walk down your street and past your gate ■ 
        Ab                  Bb      Ab
I stand by the light at the fourway ■ 
                  Bb      
You watch them as the fall
Ab                          Bbsus4 
Oh baby they all have heart attacks
Ab                       
They stay at the carnival
    Bb                Bb7      Eb
But they'll never win you back ■ 
       Eb7     Ab     
Will I see you tonight
Eb               Ab   
■  On a downtown train
Eb Ab                    F7      
■  Every night it's just the same
Bb         Eb
■  Oh baby ■ 


[Chorus]
           Ab         
Will I see you tonight
Eb               Ab   
■  On a downtown train
Eb           Ab                    Fm  
■  All of my dreams just fall like rain
Bb                    Eb   
Oh baby on a downtown train

■  Well on a downtown train
Ab                 Eb   
Well on a downtown train
Ab        Eb            
Well on a downtown train
Ab    Eb              
■  On a downtown train
