Cm               Gm              Bb     
Get straight and wait here while I try to find the exit sign
Cm                Gm                D
When will you stop asking strangers, no one wants what we want
Eb                 Gm                        Eb
Keep one eye on the door, keep one eye on the bag
                   D
Never expect to be sure 

Eb                                             Gm
You're working for the police and the private, the pirates and the pilots
Bb                            Eb
Fingerprinted waiting for the train
Eb                 Gm
A doctor, A writer, A hairdresser, 
Bb                                        Eb
Felt up and fingerprinted waiting for the train

Eb                                 Gm                            
Lord lord mother you're all losing love
Bb                                  Eb
Lord listen lover you're all missing mama
Bb                                 Gm
Lord lord mother you're all losing love
Bb                                   Eb
Lord listen lover you're all missing something (I don't got)

There's a place that ends here I know
When they close the gates I'll cry
So tired of never sleeping
The whole world wants what we're on

Didn't make this up I learned, I learned it from a friend
My friend is coming clean, she told me
Keep one eye on the door, keep one eye on the bed
Never expect to be sure who you're working for

You're working for the police and the private, the pirates and the pilots
Fingerprinted waiting for the train
a doctor, a writer, a garbage collector 
Fingerprinted waiting for the train

Lord lord mother you're all losing love
Lord listen lover you're all missing mama
Lord lord mother you're all losing love
Lord listen lover you're all missing love
Got to get out
Got to get to you, the orphanage is closing in an hour
