Down In The Tude Station by The Jam

Chords with lyrics

THE JAM: DOWN IN THE TUBE STATION AT MIDNIGHT
Words and music by Paul Weller


Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7
The distant echo
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7         Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7
To take them home to
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7         Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
The ones that they love and who love them forever
Chord diagramA minorAm               Chord diagramD7D7
The glazed, dirty _ steps
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7                   Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
Repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7       Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
         Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramB minorBm
Except for toffee wrappers and this mornings papers
Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD
Mr Jones got run down
Chord diagramG+G           		    Chord diagramB minorBm
Headlines of death and sorrow, they tell of tomorrow
Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramD MajorD
Madmen on the rampage
Chord diagramG+G           		       Chord diagramB minorBm        Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramD MajorD
And I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh

Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7
I fumble for change
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7         Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
And pull out the queen, smiling, beguiling
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7
I put in the money
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7    Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
And pull out a plumb behind me
Chord diagramA minorAm           Chord diagramD7D7
Whispers in the shadows
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD7D7    Chord diagramGmaj7Gmaj7
Gruff blazing voices, hating, waiting
Chord diagramA minorAm           Chord diagramD7D7   Chord diagramA minorAm           Chord diagramD7D7
?Hey boy? they shout, ?have you got any money?


         Chord diagramG+G           		   Chord diagramB minorBm
And I said, ?I?ve a little money and a take away curry.
Chord diagramC majorC                      Chord diagramD MajorD
I?m on my way home to my wife
Chord diagramG+G           		   Chord diagramB minorBm
She?ll be lining up the cutlery, you know she?s expecting me,
Chord diagramC majorC                      Chord diagramD MajorD
Polishing the glasses and out the cork?.
Chord diagramG+G           		       Chord diagramB minorBm        Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramD MajorD
And I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh

I first felt a fist
And then a kick, I could now smell their breath,
They smelt of pubs
And Wormwood scrubs and too many right wing meetings.
My life swan around me in its own existence
The smell of brown leather, it blended in with the weather,
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth,
It blocked my senses
Couldn?t see, hear, speak any longer.
And I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
I said I was down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh

The last thing I saw as I lay there on the floor
Was ?Jesus saves? painted by an atheist nutter
And a British rail poster read ? have an awayday a cheap holiday, do it today?

I glanced back on my life and thought about my wife
Cause they took the keys and she?ll think its me
And I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
The wine will be flat and the curry?s gone cold

I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh
Don?t wanna go
And I?m down in the tube station at midnight. Oooooooooooh

This is a great song from a great band, I cant believe that there
isn?t that many Jam songs on here.
It?s my goal to let everyone know how great they are.
Theres more where this came from.
