Train Under Water

 
Capo on 1st fret
               
 
C                                        G 
You were born inside of a raindrop 
                       F7(6)                  C 
I watched you falling to your death 
                                              G 
And the sun she could not save you 
                       F7                                         C 
She had fallen down too now the streets are wet 
 
             C                         G 
Body of water, toxic and timeless 
             F7                              C 
Atlantic ocean, New York skyline 
                                                      G 
I always get lost when I leave the village 
                              F7  
So I couldn't come meet you  
                          C 
In Brooklyn last night 
 
                       C                       G 
But I still sing glory from my lowest 
                       F7                           C 
And I will say peace to the people I meet 
                                                  G 
While the world waits for an explosion 
                        F7                               C 
That instant of light that wipes that slate clean 
 
C Am7/B 
 
Am             G 
So don't be fooled 
Am         G 
Don't get lied to 
Em           Am      D       G 
Love was always cruel 
 
Am         G 
Don't act strange 
Am           G 
Don't be a stranger 
Em                                       Am             D     G 
It happened to me, now it's happening to you 
 
                               F 
But if you take that train underwater  
 
Then we could talk it through 
 
C - G - F7 - C  
 
                        C                       G 
Well if I could tame all of my desires 
                    F7                                    C 
Wait out the weather that howls in my brain 
                                                 G 
Cause it seems that it's always changing 
                     F7                              C 
The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain 
 
            C                         G 
I was a postcard, I was a record 
            F7                           C 
I was a camera until I went blind 
                                             G 
Now I'm riding all over this island 
              F7                                    C 
Looking for something to open my eyes 
 
                           C                 G 
But we still sing glory from a highrise 
                       F7                                    C 
And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks 
                                                  G 
While the world waits for an explosion 
                      F7                                       C 
That moment in time when we?ll be set free 
 
C Am7/B 
 
Am               G 
So don't stay mad 
Am               G 
Just let some time pass 
Em                                              Am      D       G 
And in the morning you'll wake feeling new 
 
Am                          G 
And if I don't come back 
Am                         G 
I mean, if I get sidetracked 
Em                  Am         D      G 
It's only cause I wanted to 
 
                     F  
I am keeping up with the moon  
 
On an all night avenue 
 
C - G - F - C
