_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [C] _
[Dm] _ [A] Distant echo, [Dm] far away [Am] voices,
falling [G] far away trains,
_ [C#m] [Am] to take them home to,
the ones that they love and who [G] love them forever.
_ _ [Am]
The glides, dirty steps,
repeat [Bm] my own and reflect [G] my thoughts.
_ _ [Am] _ Cold and uninviting,
_ partially naked, disembark,
[G] top of [Bm] your head was an asthmatic pipe [C] and
Mr Jones [D] got run down.
[G] Headlines of [Bm] death are sold until [C] after my
[Em] remembering [D] on the red [A] page.
[G] And I'm down and I just touched that old midnight [C] bull.
_ _ [D] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] If I move for change,
[A] _ [D] pull out the queen,
[C] [G] smiling beguiling,
[A] _ [Em] I put [Am] in the money, _
[Am] pull out the plumb,
[G] behind me.
_ [Am] _
Whispers in [A] the shadows,
[Am] loud facial [Dm] voices,
[G] hating waiting.
_ [A] Hey boy, hey child,
_ have you got any money?
And I [G] say,
I've a little money [Bm] and a takeaway [C] curry,
I'm on my way home [D] to my wife,
[G] she'll be lining up at [Bm] the country and knows,
she's [C] expecting me, polishing [D] her glasses and,
pulling out [G] the coat.
I'm down [B] and I just touched that old midnight bull.
[C] _ _ [D] _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
First [Dm] felt a [A] fist,
[Am] and then a kick,
could [G] not turn a path.
_ _ [Am] The smell of pubs,
and [D] wormwood [Am] scrubs,
with [G] too many right wing teens.
_ [Am] _
My life swam around me,
it took a look and drowned,
[G] in its own existence.
_ _ [Am] The smell of brown leather,
evening in with the weather,
[G] filled my eyes,
and it's mother [Bm] market love,
so my senses [C] could see,
[D] speaking in a loud [G] voice.
I'm down in a [Bm] cheap station of midnight [C] bull.
[Am] I [G] said I'm walking down [Bm] in a cheap station of midnight bull.
[C] _ _ [Am] _ [B] _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ [G] The sound of the metal,
[Bm] something right there on my [C] phone,
Jesus say, make it [D] pop,
make the years never [G] end,
I think you should have a fuss,
[B] I really am on a white [C] day,
a cheap [D] holiday,
a drink [G] today,
I'm lost like a [Bm] minor,
and just about a [C] mile on the side,
I took the [D] keys,
but you think it's [G] me,
I'm down in a [Bm] cheap station of midnight [C] bull.
The water moving [D] fast,
let me call it a [G] roll,
I'm down in [Bm] a cheap station of midnight bull.
[C] _ [D] _ _ [G] Down in a cheap station [Bm] of midnight [C] bull.
