F5    C5        D5     C5   
The last train is nearly due,  
    A5   E5        A5        
The underground is closing soon,  
    F5      C5      D5     C5         
And in the dark deserted station  
A5       E5   A5   
Restless in anticipation,  
  F5                C5        F5  C5   G5 A5   
A man waits in the shadows.  
 
 
    F5        C5    D5       C5   
His restless eyes leap and scratch,  
   A5       E5       A5        
At all that they can touch or catch,  
    F5      C5        D5     C5         
And hidden deep within his pocket,  
A5       E5     A5   
Safe within his silent socket,  
   F5               C5       F5  C5   G5 A5   
He holds a colored crayon.  
 
 
    F5        C5        D5    C5   
Now from the tunnel's stony womb,  
    A5       E5       A5        
The carriage rides to meet the groom ,  
    F5     C5        D5      C5        
And opens wide and welcome doors,  
       A5  E5     A5               
But he hesitates, then withdraws  
F5             C5           A5          
Deeper in the shadows.  
 
 
                                    
And the train is gone suddenly  
   C5                             
On wheels clicking silently  
       F5                E5 D5    
Like a gently tapping lita-ny,  
       A5                           
And he holds his crayon rosary  
F5              C5        A5    
Tighter in his hand.  
 
 
    F5        C5      D5       C5   
Now from his pocket quick he flashes  
    A5     E5     A5                 
The crayon on the wall he slashes,  
F5      C5      D5   C5        
Deep upon the advertising,  
  A5     E5     A5              
A single worded poem comprised  
   F5             C5       
Of four letters.  
 
 
        F5        C5         D5         C5   
And his heart is laughing, screaming, pounding,  
    A5    E5        A5                  
The poem across the tracks rebounding  
F5        C5      D5   C5        
Shadowed by the exit light  
    A5        E5     A5              
His legs take their ascending flight  
   F5        C5         A5       E5     A5                         
To seek the breast of darkness and be suckled by the night.
