Someone wanted "Downtown Train" by Tom Waits. I don't know the Waits
version, but if it has the same chords as the MCC version, here it is.
If it doesn't, then at least maybe the MCC fans will like this. :)
DOWNTOWN TRAIN (by Tom Waits; recorded by Mary-Chapin Carpenter)
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is half a measure.]
[Try using C(9) instead of C sometimes, and Dsus instead of D; I'm
not sure _exactly_ which chords are used.]

Em They try Emso hardD/F# to break out of D/F#their little world
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing that will ever capture your heart
They're just thorns without the rose
Oh, be careful of them in the dark
And if I was the one
You chose to be your only one
Oh baby now, can't you hear me now
G Will I Gsee you toCnight C G on a Gdowntown Ctrain C
G G C C Am Am D D (G...)
Where every night is just the same; You leave me lonely now
(Now) I know your window and I know it's late
I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light at the fourway
You watch them as they fall
Ooh, and they all have heart attacks
They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Where every night, every night is just the same; you leave me lonely
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Where every night, every night is just the same, all upon a downtown

Where every night, every night is just the same, you leave me lonely
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Where all my dreams just fall like the rain, all upon a downtown train
