[Verse 1]
ERain for the last day that I will be known
The C#way that I Bwant them to Aknow me
ERain for reporters' predictable leads
On the C#darkening Bstain of my Aname
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F#Rain like the morning you Aleft with the interEnational brigade B
A F#streak of your face at the Aglass when the train pulled aEway
[Chorus 1]
A/C# The aspiB/D#distra that reEfused to Adie
A/C# A miniature B/D#camera in a ECambridge Atie
A To get that BSoviet conEtrol to crack a smile A
AAll in our Bfile, my fellow Etraveller

ESleep for the telephone's silent receiver
On its C#beetle-black Bback in the Ahall
ESleep for the bottle that rolled off my desk
C#Danced itself Bout on the Afloor
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#Sleep for the overturned Aashtray splayed aEcross an unmade bed B
While F#I interrogate every Aword that I ever said E
[Chorus 2]
A/C# I fall from B/D#buildings into Eangry Aair
A/C# Lecture my B/D#students in my EunderAwear
A But once I Bwas allowed to Edream of you instead A

[Bridge]
How you F#booked your final passage
With a G#passport that you paid for with a pair of roller skates
How you Adyed your hair and mustache
Put on a Bmid-Atlantic accent but you couldn't stop the shakes
When they F#asked where you had come from
And you G#muttered, "That's a good one"
Though you were Anever really certain
[Chorus 3]
A/C# Every umB/D#brella down on EPortman ASquare
A/C# Opens and B/D#closes to aErraign our Afair
A Theory of Bsomething I can't Epicture anymore A
AA forgery Bfor my fellow F#traveller G#
[Outro]
I Awon't wait to Bsee
I still I beG#lieve in you and B/D#me
My fellow Etraveller
