G5 G5    C5          D5        G5   G5 
   Outside another yellow moon 
                 C5           D5 
   Has punched a hole in the nighttime 
G5  G5                   C5           D5             G5   G5 
   I climb through the window and down to the street 
       C5              D5 
   I'm shining like a new dime 
 

C5 C5         D5              D5 
   The downtown trains are full 
C5       C5           D5       D5 
   With all those Brooklyn girls 
E5          E5     D5             D5 
   They try so hard to break out of their little world 
 
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows 

They have nothing that will ever capture your heart 

They're just thorns without the rose 

Oh, be careful of them in the dark 
 
And if I was the one 

You chose to be your only one 

Oh baby now, can't you hear me now 

 
G5         G5         C5     C5    G5      G5        C5     C5 
   Will I see you tonight        on a downtown train 
G5         G5          C5  C5            A5   A5   D5             D5       ( G...) 
   Where every night     is just the same;      You leave me lonely now 
 
(Now) I know your window and I know it's late 

I know your stairs and your doorway 

I walk down your street and past your gate 

I stand by the light at the fourway 
 
You watch them as they fall 

Ooh, and they all have heart attacks 

They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back 
 
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

Where every night, every night is just the same; you leave me lonely 

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

Where every night, every night is just the same, all upon a downtown

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

Where every night, every night is just the same, you leave me lonely 

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train 

Where all my dreams just fall like the rain, all upon a downtown train
