[Verse 1]
[D] Outside a - not[G]her yel[A]low moon--[D]--,
Has punched a h[G]ole in the ni[A]ght time, yes,[D]
I cl[G]imb through the window, and d[A]own to the st[D]reet,
I'm shi[G]ning like a n[A]ew dime,
[G] The downtown [Asus4]trains are f[A]ull...
[G] With all of those B[Asus4]rooklyn gi[A]rls,
[G/B] They try so hard to [A/C#]break out of their li[A]ttle worlds!
[Verse 2]
[D] Well, you wave your ha[G]nd, and they sca[A]tter like crows--[D]-,
They have not[G]hing that will ever cap[A]ture your he[D]art,
They're just tho[G]rns with - o[A]ut the rose--[D]--,
Be car[G]eful of them i[A]n the dark,
[G] Oh, if I[Asus4] was the one [A] .[G]..you chose to be your only[Asus4] one,[A]
Oh, baby, [G/B] ...can't you hear me?
[A/C#] ...Can't you h[A7]ear me now?
[Cborus]
[D] Will I see you to - n[G]ight[A7] .[D]..on a downtown tr[G]ain?[A7] [D]
Every ni[G]ght ...it's just the [G/F#]same,[Em] [Em7]
[A] You leave me lo[A7]nely n[D]ow!
[Verse 3]
[D] I know your wi[G]ndow, and [A]I know it's l[D]ate,
I know your sta[G]irs and your do[A]orway,[D]
I walk down your str[G]eet, and p[A]ast your g[D]ate,
I stand by the li[G]ght at the fo[A]ur-way,
[G] You watch them as they[Asus4] fall,[A]
Oh, b[G]aby, they all have heart at - t[A4]acks,[A]
They s[G/B]tay at the carnival,
But they'll n[A/C#]ever win you b[A7]ack!
[Cborus]
[D] Can I see you ton[G]ight [A7] [D]...on a downtown tr[G]ain?[A7] [D]
Every night,.[G]..every night it's [G/F#]just the s[Em]ame,[Em7] [A]...oh, b[A7]aby!
[Bridge]
[D] Will I see you to - n[G]ight[A7] [D]...on a downtown tr[G]ain?[A7] [D]
All of my te[G]ars ..they fall [G/F#]like r[Em]ain, oh, b[A]aby,
On a do[A7]wntown tr[D]ain![A] [D] [A]
