Railway Hotel by Justin Hayward


                         Railway Hotel 


Capo:no capo
[3/4 time]
 
         D           A7          D
     We went to the room and we bolted the door
 
          E                         A7
     The bass from the jukebox was coming through the floor
 
          D               A7              D             G            D  /  /
     And out through the walls we could still hear the roar of the trains
 
     C  /  /  D  /  G  D  /  /
 
           D           A7         D
     Was this all the comfort we got for our sins
 
         E                       A7
     No candles, no waiters, no soft violins
 
          D      A7         D             G          D  /  /  C  /  /
     The dirty electric convector plugged into the mains
 
    D                   A                             D
     I had wanted much more for the first night with you
 
                        G                        D  /  /  A7  /  /  D  /  /
     But the Railway Hotel was the best I could do
 
                   A                         D
     I knew the Savoy would have suited you well
 
                           G                    D  /  /  A7  /  /  D  /  /
     But the best I could do was the Railway Hotel
 
     G  /  /  D  /  /  C  /  /  D  /  G  D  /  /
 
       D          A7            D
     Away in the sky were the lights of a jet
 
      E                           A7
     Burning in the night like a slow cigarette
 
        D             A7           D         G            D  /  /
     A lamp in the street threw a soft silhouette on the wall
 
     C  /  /  D  /  G  D  /  /
 
           D             A7           D
     And though it was crumbling and run down and dead
 
         E                     A7
     A chair and a sink and an old single bed
 
          D         A7           D             G        D  /  /  C  /  /
     The love we began and the things that we said I recall
 
    D                   A                             D
     I had wanted much more for the first night with you
 
                        G                        D  /  /  A7  /  /  D  /  /
     But the Railway Hotel was the best I could do
 
                   A                         D
     I knew the Savoy would have suited you well
 
                           G                    D  /  /  G  /  /  D
     But the best I could do was the Railway Hotel
