On the train you see [Dm] an image [E] passed by [A] your eyes
A woman [Dm] combing her long brown hair [E] A child starting [A] to cry
But it shoots right [Dm] past the window [E] And [E] out of your [A] mind
Leaving just a brief [Dm] impression As [E] it passes on [A] by
There was something that I saw you said Can you pull on [Am] the cord?
[B] It might be against the law you read But you've just got to [Am] see more
So let [Dm] me nail [E] down this [Am] butterfly Even [B] if it [E] kills it to [A] try
Cause [Dm] I'm not [E] buying your [Am] alibi [A] [Fm] Cause it's paler than [E] the whitest [Am] light
[A] At the end of [Dm] the evening when the [E] band's gone to [A] bed
And the last call [Dm] for alcohol [E] has sailed over your [A] head
And a hundred [Dm] conversations screech to [A] an end
And a play for [Dm] a lover is just [E] another new [A] friend
I [A] was in the middle [E] of a joke I said Can I punch out the [Am] line?
I was working on a speech I said That might have changed your mind
[A] So let [Dm] me nail [E] down [Am] this butterfly Even [Dm] if it kills [E] it [Am] to try
Cause [Dm] I'm not [E] buying [A] your [Am] alibi Cause it's [Fm] paler [E] than the whitest light
