[Verse 1]
D                               Bm 
I stood in this unsheltered place

G                 A                 D
'Til I could see the face behind the face

D                               Bm 
All that had gone before had left no trace
[Chorus 1]
G                 A
Down by the railway siding

G                 A
In our secret world, we were colliding

G                 A             Bm
All the places we were hiding love

G                 A                D
What was it we were thinking of?
[Verse 2]
D                               Bm 
So I watch you wash your hair

G                 A                D
Underwater, unaware

D                               Bm 
And the plane flies through the air
[Chorus 2]
G                 A
Did you think I didn't have to choose it

G                 A
That I alone could win or lose it

G                 A             Bm 
In all the places we were hiding love

G                 A                D
What was it we were thinking of?
[Verse 3]
D                               Bm 
In this house of make believe

G                   A              D
Divided in two like Adam and Eve

D                               Bm 
You put out and I receive
[Verse 4]
G                 A
Down by the railway siding

G                 A
In our secret world, we were colliding

G                 A             Bm 
All the places we were hiding love

G                 A                D
What was it we were thinking of?
[Bridge] D
D
Oh the wheel it is turning spinning round and round

D
And the house it is crumbling but the stairways stand       
C D
D
With no guilt and no shame, no sorrow or blame

D
Whatever it is, we are all the same
C D C D [Bridge 2]
C              G
Shaking it up

C              G
Breaking it up

C              G                D
Making it up in our secret world
[Verse 5]
D                                Bm 
Seeing things that were not there

G                A      D
On a wing, on a prayer

D                                Bm 
In this state of disrepair
[Verse 6]
G                 A
Down by the railway siding

G                 A
In our secret world, we were colliding

G                 A              Bm 
All the places we were hiding love

G                 A             D
What was it we were thinking of?
[Ending] C G C G C G D
