Lyrics:
 
Gm  F  Dm  C
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah
 
Gm  F  Dm  C   A7
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah  Ah
 
     D         G/C             G/B    Bb C            D     G/C G/B Bb C
In a white room    with black curtains     near the stations
 
            D    G/C           G/B      Bb C         D      G/C G/B Bb C
Blackroof country   , no gold pavements,     tired starlings,
 
        D    G/C          G/B     Bb C            D       G/C G/B Bb C
Silver horses   run down moonbeams      in your dark eyes.
 
           D    G/C          G/B    Bb C         D      G/C G/B Bb C
Dawnlight smiles   on your leaving,       my contentment.
 
      C             G             Bb          A
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines.
 
 C            G                Bb     C         C     D
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
 
You said no strings could secure you at the stations.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out felt my own need just beginning.
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
I'll wait for you where the shadows run from themselves
 
Gm  F  Dm  C
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah
 
Gm  F  Dm  C   A7
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah  Ah
 
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation from the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
She's just dressing goodbye windows, tired starlings
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd,
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
 
Gm  F  Dm  C
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah
 
Gm  F  Dm  C   A7
Ah  Ah Ah  Ah  Ah

amazing tab dude

Very nice.
First, it's a great tabliture. Second, I noticed on the section for the introductory chords, you have the first C chord as 8-9-10-x-x-x, rather than, how the second see is shown, x-8-9-10-x-x Most would notice there was a problem, and know which one is correct by the sound, but I thought I'd let you know there was that small mistake.
