The distant echo
LAm RE7 SOLmaj7Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
LAm RE7To take them home to
The ones that they love and who love them forever
LAm RE7The glazed, dirty _ steps
LAm RE7 SOLmaj7Repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
SOL SImExcept for toffee wrappers and this mornings papers
DO REMr Jones got run down
Headlines of death and sorrow, they tell of tomorrow
DO REMadmen on the rampage
SOL SIm DO REAnd I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
LAm RE7
I fumble for change
And pull out the queen, smiling, beguiling
LAm RE7I put in the money
LAm RE7 SOLmaj7And pull out a plumb behind me
Whispers in the shadows
LAm RE7 SOLmaj7Gruff blazing voices, hating, waiting
LAm RE7 LAm RE7“Hey boy” they shout, “have you got any money”
SOL SIm
And I said, “I’ve a little money and a take away curry.
I’m on my way home to my wife
SOL SImShe’ll be lining up the cutlery, you know she’s expecting me,
DO REPolishing the glasses and out the cork”.
And I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
I first felt a fist
And then a kick, I could now smell their breath,
They smelt of pubs
And Wormwood scrubs and too many right wing meetings.
My life swan around me in its own existence
The smell of brown leather, it blended in with the weather,
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth,
It blocked my senses
Couldn’t see, hear, speak any longer.
And I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
I said I was down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
The last thing I saw as I lay there on the floor
Was “Jesus saves” painted by an atheist nutter
And a British rail poster read “ have an awayday a cheap holiday, do it today”
I glanced back on my life and thought about my wife
Cause they took the keys and she’ll think its me
And I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
The wine will be flat and the curry’s gone cold
I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
Don’t wanna go
And I’m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
