Graham Parker - Watch the moon come down

^GIn this dirty town there's nothing ^Cgoing for me ^GNo shows going down that I would ^Cwant to see ^GNothing but the midnight ^Emtra----^Cin ^GIn this shady street on a ^Ctop floor flat ^GWomen take their sheets down ^Cto the laundromat ^GAnd as the night falls on this ^Emto-----^Cwn

I'm going to ^Gwatch ^Dthe ^Emmoon ^Dcome ^Cdown ^GWatch ^Dthe ^Emmoon ^Dcome ^Cdown I'm gonna ^GWatch ^Dthe ^Emmoon ^Dcome ^Cdown ^GWatch ^Dit ^Emcome ^Ddown

^GAs the workmen walk home, re^Cflected in the car chrome ^GSplashing through the gutters ^Cand the sand ^GThe birds move in the rafters ^CHearing echoes of the laughter ^GFrom children in a playground ^Cclose at hand

^DAn^Bmd hands inside my pockets, Staring at the light sockets ^CEv^Deryone's been blown out Everyone's been thrown out ^CI said baby baby baby baby baby

^GIf I stay out all night ^CTest the midnight train's headlights ^GFollow the tracks beyond sight ^Cto the bend ^GNow who've I got to let down, Tell me somebody with their head down ^GBargin' into solid ground ^Cin the end ^DIn the end, y^Bmeah in the end ^CWaitin for the end, ^Darrive to the end, hey hey (guitar solo)
