Belfast Central

G
Belfast Central, waiting for a train.
            C               D                   C
It seems to me things have come full circle and I won't
         D
be here again.
G
Getting back to working on my own.
           C      D       G       C             D
This could be my finest moment or I could come undone.

[Chorus]
   G          C        D            G               C
I used to be wary of loving and I thought it would just
        D
tie me down.
      G             C            D          C
I'd sleep in your house with my boots on, always ready
    D
to run.

[Verse 2]
G
Thinking back to all I used to be.
              C     D        G                  C
You've been wilder all your life and you were surely
          D
shocking me.
G
Dancing past me in a black lacy shirt.
           C             D       G              C
My heart pinged like a lamb in spring and you laughed
          D
at my innocence.

[Chorus]
     G          C       D              G
You knew I was wary of loving, how I thought it would
C             D
just tie me down.
          G             C             D         C
How I'd sleep in your house with my boots on, always
          D
ready to run.

[Verse 3]
G
Gin and tonic, endless cups of tea,
           C         D          G
Counting Crows and dark welsh sunsets,
     C                                 D
I'd gaze while you held the steering wheel.
G
Some thoughts I'd tell you, some you'd have to guess.
            C                 D
Your arms round us while we prayed in silence,
        C
The sweetness of your breath.

[Bridge]
G                      C            D
And you here at this point in my struggle when I am
G            C          D
clinging to all that I know.
G
And this is one time, one place, one meeting.
                               D
We are loving, we are letting go.

[Chorus]
G                   C        D            G
And I am no longer wary of loving and I know that it
C             D
won't tie me down.
       G             C             D
And I don't have to sleep with my boots on though I am
C
always ready to run.

G
Belfast Central, waiting for a train.
            C                D         G        C
It seems to me things have come full circle and I won't
          D
be here again.
