The Last Train

C

[Verse 1]
                             Am
It was the last train of the evening
    Dm              G
The sun was setting low
      E7                Am
As we pulled out of the station
          F             G
I glanced up to see its glow
       C          Am
In the window a reflection
     Dm             G
Of a face I used to know
      E7             Am
In an old life, in a young life
        F              G
We both lived so long ago


[Chorus]
          C                   
She could dance from dusk till 
 Bb
dawning
          F
She could twist and shout with joy
    D7                      Dm    
And I was hers forever, her first 
         G
and only boy
            C                 Am
But in that old life, in that young 
life

      Dm               G
I was far too smart to know
         Dm             G         
That the one regret I'd harbour 
   F
yet
           G       C
Was that I let her go


[Verse 2]
                     Am
She was reading as I watched her
         Dm                G
Till she turned another page
         E7             Am
From the lines upon her face now
          F              G
You could never tell her age
      C                Am
But I knew I looked so different
          Dm               G
Time just hadn't been that kind
      E7                   Am
On my face were etched the failures
       F               G
Of the life I'd left behind


[Verse 3]
      C                     F
As we slowed she closed her novel

Stood to take her suitcase down
D
Turned and paused and stared at me
    G
Then shadowed by a frown
C               Am
Shook her head, took her case
Dm                G
Moved towards the door
 Dm            G
Another time, another place
    F       G       C
But leaving me once more


[Chorus]
          C                   
She could dance from dusk till 
 Bb
dawning
          F                        
She could twist and shout with joy,
     G
 and that
         Dm             G         
That the one regret I'd harbour 
   F
yet
           G       C
Was that I let her go
