G                                  C
In this dirty town there's nothing going for me
G                                C
No shows going down that I would want to see
G                        Em     C
Nothing but the midnight tra----in
G                         C          
In this shady street on a top floor flat
G                            C        
Women take their sheets down to the laundromat
G                              Em     C
And as the night falls on this to-----wn

CHORUS
             G     D   Em   D    C  
I'm going to watch the moon come down
G     D   Em   D    C
Watch the moon come down
          G     D   Em   D    C
I'm gonna Watch the moon come down
G     D  Em   D
Watch it come down

G                           C
As the workmen walk home, reflected in the car chrome
G                             C
Splashing through the gutters and the sand
G                             C
The birds move in the rafters Hearing echoes of the laughter
G                             C
From children in a playground close at hand

D Bm
And hands inside my pockets, Staring at the light sockets
C D
Everyone's been blown out Everyone's been thrown out
C
I said baby baby baby baby baby 

REPEAT CHORUS

G                       C
If I stay out all night Test the midnight train's headlights
G                              C
Follow the tracks beyond sight to the bend
G 
Now who've I got to let down, Tell me somebody with their head down
G                         C          D            Bm
Bargin' into solid ground in the end In the end, yeah in the end
C                   D 
Waitin for the end, arrive to the end, hey hey (guitar solo)

C 
I said baby baby baby baby baby 
G     D   Em   D    C
Watch the moon come down (three times)
                 G     D   Em   D    C
Yes I'm going to watch the moon come down
                  G     D   Em   D    C
Yeah I'm going to watch the moon come down Like a midnight train uh huh 
                   G     D   Em   D    C
Uh uh I'm going to watch the moon come down watch it come down 
                 G     D   Em   D    C
Yes I'm going to watch the moon come down, like a midnight train (fade)
