DOWNTOWN TRAIN by Bob Seger
----------------------------
[Intro]
G C D (x2)
[Verse 1]
G C D G
Outside, a-nother yellow moon,
C D
Has punched a hole in the night-time, yes.
G C D G
I climb through the window and down to the street,
C D
I'm shining like a new dime.
[Bridge 1]
C D
The downtown trains are full,
C D
With all of those Brooklyn girls.
C D
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds.
[Verse 2]
G C D G
Well, you wave your hand and they scatter like crows,
C D G
They have nothing that will ever capture your heart.
C D G
They're just thorns, without the rose;
C D
Be careful of them in the dark.
[Bridge 2]
C D C D
Oh, if I was the one, you chose to be your only one.
C D
Oh baby, can't you hear me now? Can't you hear me now?
[Chorus 1]
G C D
Will I see you to-night,
G C D
On a downtown train?
G C Am D
Every night it's just the same; you leave me lonely, now.
[Verse 3]
G C D G
I know your window and I know it's late,
C D
I know your stairs and your doorway.
G C D G
I walk down your street and past your gate,
C D
I stand by the light at the four-way.
[Bridge 3]
C D
You watch them as they fall,
C D
Oh baby, they all have heart-attacks.
C D
They stay at the carnival but they'll never win you back.
[Chorus 2]
G C D
Will I see you to-night,
G C D
On a downtown train?
G C Am D
Where every night, every night, it's just the same, oh baby...
G C D
Will I see you to-night,
G C D
On a downtown train?
G C Am D
All of my dreams, they fall like rain, oh baby, on a downtown train.
[Interlude]

Will I see you to-night,
G C D
On a downtown train?
G C Am D
Where every night, every night, it's just the same, oh baby...
G C D
Will I see you to-night,
G C D
On a downtown train?

All of my dreams, they fall like rain, oh baby, on a downtown train.
[Interlude]
