[F]
I saw [Bb] another [C]
[F] yellow moon
I [Bb] saw [C] another yellow [F] moon
[Bb] Punched a hole [C] in the night [F] time
I climbed to the window and down to the street
[Bb] I'm shining like a new dime
[C] Downtown trains are [Bb] full
With [C] all those Brooklyn girls
[Bb] They try so [C] hard to break out [F] of their little worlds
Oh, you [Bb] wave your hand [C] and they [F] scatter like coals
[Bb]
They're [C] nothing, they will never capture [F] your heart
[Bb] They're just [C] thorns without [F] the roots
[Bb]
Keep careful of them in the dark
If I was the one
[Bb] To be [C] your only one
[Bb] Can't you hear me [C] [F] now?
Will I see you [Bb] [C] tonight?
[F] On the [Bb] downtown [C] train
[F]
[Bb] Every night, every night it's just the same
[C] Oh baby, leave me lonely [F] now
I [Bb] know your window [C] and I know [F] it's late
[Bb] I know your [G] stairs and your [F] doorway
[Bb] I [C] climb past [F] your gate
[Bb] And the [C] light at the [Bb] four-way
You [C] watch them as they [Bb] fall
Oh baby, they [C] all have heart attacks
[Bb] They wait at the carnival
[C] They'll never win you [F] back
Will I see [Bb] you tonight?
[C] [F] On the [Bb] downtown [C] train
[F]
[Bb] Every night, every [Gm] night it's just the same
[C] Oh baby, leave me [F] lonely now
Will I see you [C] tonight?
On the downtown train
[F]
Every [Bb] night, every night it's just [Gm] the same
[G] Oh baby, on the downtown [F]
train
[C] [Dm]
