Intro: (x3)

Your imaginations having puppies

D5 C5 A#5

And pretend that you got the flu

D5 C5 A#5

Or dreams of impossible vacations

D5 C5 A#5

And get all teary from the wind

D5 C5 A#5

Look as though you're standing at the station

D5 C5 F

Long after the train came in

G5 A#5

And see how the space tautens

D5 C5 F

Like there's something on

G5 A#5

And you're never more hot then

D5 C5 F

When you've got something on

Picture a century of water

D5 C5 A#5

With the sweep of a mapping pioneer

D5 C5 A#5

Outside there's hectic action

D5 C5 A#5

The ice is covering the trees

D5 C5 A#5

And one of em's interconnecting

D5 C5 F

With my chevrolet caprice

G5 A#5

Black out to phantom power

D5 C5 F

And like there's nothing on

G5 A#5

And hammering the tower

Bridge

G#5 F G#5 G5 Eb F

G#5 F

We'll ride the monorail

G#5 G5

Rocking gently home on the trail

Eb F

You wanna to show me the moon

I know you're standing at the station

F G5 A#5

I can see how your face tautens

D5 C5 F

Like you've got something on

G5 A#5

It makes me feel just rotten

D5 C5 F

But you've got something on

D5 C5 F
