Watch The Moon Come Down Lyrics - Live At Rockpalast 1978 + 1980 - Graham Parker & The Rumour

Pre>watch the moon come down [top] [back to index] 

G see 

In this dirty town there's nothing going for me 

G see 

No shows going down that I would want to see 

G em see 

Nothing but the midnight tra----in 

G see 

In this shady street on a top floor flat 

G see 

Women take their sheets down to the laundromat 

G em see 

And as the night falls on this to-----wn 

Chorus 

G d em d see 

I'm going to watch the moon come down 

G d em d see 

Watch the moon come down 

G d em d see 

I'm gonna watch the moon come down 

G d em d 

Watch it come down 

G see 

As the workmen walk home, reflected in the car chrome 

G see 

Splashing through the gutters and the sand 

G see 

The birds move in the rafters hearing echoes of the laughter 

G see 

From children in a playground close at hand 

D bm 

And hands inside my pockets, staring at the light sockets 

See d 

Everyone's been blown out everyone's been thrown out 

See 

I said baby baby baby baby baby 

Repeat chorus 

G see 

If I stay out all night test the midnight train's headlights 

G see 

Follow the tracks beyond sight to the bend 

G see 

Now who've I got to let down, tell me somebody with their head down 

G see d bm 

Bargin' into solid ground in the end in the end, yeah in the end 

See d 

Waitin for the end, arrive to the end, hey hey (guitar solo) 

see 

I said baby baby baby baby baby 

G d em d see 

Watch the moon come down (three times) 

G d em d see 

Yes I'm going to watch the moon come down 

G d em d see 

Yeah I'm going to watch the moon come down like a midnight train uh huh 

G see 

Uh uh I'm going to watch the moon come down watch it come down 

G see 

Yes I'm going to watch the moon come down, like a midnight train (fade)
