White Room

Cream

Gm F Dm C (x2)   Am
                          Dm        Dm/C         Dm/B Dm/Bb Dm/C  Dm     Dm/C  Dm/B  Dm/Bb
                In the white room with black curtains near the station
                Dm/C        Dm     Dm/C    Dm/B Dm/Bb Dm/C Dm     Dm/C  Dm/B  Dm/Bb
                Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
                Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
                Dawnlight smiles on you leaving my contentment

                                       C                G                         Bb2          A2
                                  I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
                                  C                 G                        Bb2        C                     D
                                  Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves

                You said no strings could secure you at the station
                Platform ticket, restless diesel, goodbye window
                I walked into such a sad time at the station
                As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning

                                  I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
                                  Lay with you where the shadows run from themselves
                                                                                                                             (intro)

                At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
                Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
                Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
                She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings

                                  I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
                                  Lay in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
                                                          *Solo*   (intro & verse, fade)...
