D# G# A#
I know by now
Gm A# Cm
That no-one cheers up when told to
D# A#
That it's more the arms
Cm
That hold you
G# A#
Than whatever words are said
D# G# A#
Of course I know
Gm A# Cm
But you can't blame me for trying
D# A# Cm
I could hardly hear you crying
G# A#
For the traffic overhead
Fm D# G#
There will come a time
Fm D# G#
When there will come a train
D#
To take us somewhere else
D# G# A#
You figured out
Gm A# Cm
You needn't break a promise
D# A# Cm
For it to be dishonest
G# A#
For you to be undone
D# G# A#
But spare yourself
Gm A# Cm
The self-recriminations
D# A# Cm
And summon all your patience
G# A#
For the summer still to come
Fm D# G#
'Cause there will come a time
Fm D# G#
When there will come a train
D#
To take us somewhere else
A# Gm
Far away from the factory shells
Cm
And the shades of grey
D#
From the pools of piss
A#
And the broken glass
Gm Cm
Underneath the overpass
D#
From the rush-hour roar
A#
And the nagging rain
Gm
There will come a time
Cm
There will come a train
D#
There will come a time
A#
There will come a train
Gm
There will come a time
D#
There will come a train....
