Third Rail

D
As much as I love you

A            A7
As much as I care

D                            A             A7
I just can't pretend that the problem's not there

G           F
We know the boundaries

     Am
>From where we both stand

G                 Dm            E7
Our life has been happy without any pain

               Dm
But now I feel sorrow

                    Em
as friendship turns stale

                    Dm
Our love's still on track but,

Continues after the ad
G               C    F C F C F
without a third rail

2nd Verse:
The moon has come up now
The sun has gone down
A million or more times since you've been around
Our life still goes on but
it won't be the same
As when we're together, love only knows pain
With words that are tender
Our love will prevail
But can our love go on,
without a third rail


C              Dm               Am
White clouds appear like cotton wool

               D7
The wind bends trees to bow

Fm        Bd                Fm
As we farewell this love of ours

              Bd
like some old sacred cow

C          Dm
As sure as heaven's above us

Am          D7
and hell is down below

Fm              Bd
Without a third rail to drive us

Am            D7
we'll have no place to go


3rd Verse:
There's a lump in my throat
I'm choked as I say
Our love has reached twilight, let's call it a day
We kiss on the platform
The doors slowly close
Like theatre curtains pulled after the show
We both know it's over
And somehow we've failed
Love's going in circles
without a third rail
