[C#] [D#] We [D#m] [C#]
[F#]
[G#]
[C#] went to [G#] the room and [C#] we bolted the door [D#] The bass from the jukebox [G#] was coming through
the floor [C#] And out through the [G#] walls we [C#] could still [F#] hear
the roar of [C#] the trains [B]
[A#m] Was [C#]
this all the [G#] comfort [F#] we got [C#] for our sins?
[D#] No camels, no waiters, [G#] no soft violins [C#] A dirty [D#m] electric [C#] one-vector [F#] plugged into [C#] the
mains I had wanted [G#] much more for the first night
[C#] with you But the railway [F#] hotel was the best I could
[C#] [G#] do
[C#] I knew the [G#] subway would have suited [C#]
you well
But the best I [F#] could do was the railway [C#] hotel
[G#]
[C#] [F#] Away [C#] [F#]
[C#]
in the [G#] sky were [C#] the lights of a jet
[D#] Burning in the night like a [G#] slow cigarette
[C#] The lamp in the [G#] street threw [C#] a soft [F#] silhouette on [C#] the [B] walls
[C#]
And though it was [D#m] crumbling, [G#] I'd [C#] run down and dance
[D#] A chair and a sink [G#] and an old single bed [C#] The love we [G#] began and [C#] the things that we [F#] said
I [C#] recall I had wanted much [G#] more for the first night
[C#] with you But the railway [F#] hotel was the best I [C#] could
do [G#]
[Fm] I [C#] knew the [G#] subway would have suited [C#] you well
