[Intro]
A A/G A/F# A/E
[Verse 1]
A A/G A/F#
It's hard to concentrate on waiting
A/E A
Wondering if she will know my face
A/G A/F#
Trying to remember, it might have been the time
A/E
Or maybe might have been the place
[Chorus]
Am7 C7 Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
In an underground railroad station, just out of the rain
Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
So much depends on the six o'clock train
A A/G A/F# A/E
And a girl with green eyes
[Verse 2]
A A/G A/F#
The hands on the subway clock
A/E A
Are almost straight up and down
A/G A/F#
Way back in that dark black tunnel
A/E
I thought I heard a sound
A A/G A/F#
Will she know me when she sees me;
A/E A
Or wait to hear my voice?
A/G
When I see her walking through the steam
A/F# A/E
In the maddening rush hour noise
[Chorus]
Am7 C7 Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
In an underground railroad station, just out of the rain
Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
So much depends on the six o'clock train
A A/G A/F# A/E
And a girl with green eyes
[Verse 3]
A A/G A/F#
So silly in my nervousness
A/E A
So crazy in my fears
A/G A/F#
I asked a man with a brown suit on
A/E A
Does the six o'clock stop here?
A/G A/F# A/E A
He reassured me quickly, and turned as if in pain
A/G A/F# A/E
And I wondered maybe he like I, depended on the train
[Chorus]
Am7 C7 Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
In an underground railroad station, just out of the rain
Fmaj7 Bm7 Bm6
So much depends on the six o'clock train
A A/G A/F# A/E
And a girl with green eyes
A A/G A/F# A/E
