Em	               D
On a lonesome evening, when rain turns pavement black
C	              Em
I put you on a train, I’d never see you back again…

1 CHORUS
G	  D	         C
'cause you were leaving, I couldn't fathom why
G	  D	                  C
and the moon was a slice of lemon in a gin and tonic sky
gin and tonic sky

Em	                   D
well I put you on a train, you should have heard the engines laughter
C			        Em
saying' "I'm takin' her away and don't come running after"
Em	                        D
you gave me one last cold kiss, colder than steel
C	
this would be the last time 
G	               D
and my tears were like vinegar burning in my eyes,
C	
burning in my eyes

1 CHORUS

2 CHORUS
Please swear you won't take her from me now…
And I always said train stations gave me a lonesome feeling 
'cause from someone somewhere they were stealing, stealing
na na na na na, na na na 

and to hear the trains arms a violently pumping
and a little ruby heart inside me a thumping,
I was my own man now, a soldier on a battle field,
A grain of sand on a gold dust beach,
A one man band with an empty open hand,
A one man band with an empty open hand 

1 CHORUS(x2)

Gin and tonic sky, gin and tonic sky,
Gin and tonic sky, gin and tonic sky
Sky oh! Gin and tonic sky
