Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

 
G C
In the white room with black curtains near the station
G C
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
G C
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
D G
Dawn light smiles on you leaving, my con-tent
 

Verse 2

 
G C
You said no strings could secure you at the station
G C
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
G C
I walked into such a sad time at the station
D G
As I walked out, felt my own need just be-ginning
 

Chorus

 
C G
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
C G
Consolation for the old wound now for-gotten
Am Em
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
D G
She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
 

Verse 3

 
G
I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
C G
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
 

Chorus

 
C G
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
C G
Consolation for the old wound now for-gotten
Am Em
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes

She’s just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
