{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
{section: Intro}
{sot}[F#] + (B[----2-3-2)
[E]  + (B[----0-1-0){eot}

(With F# play 244222/222222/244222)
[F#]On a lonesome evening, [E]when rain turns pavement black
[D]I put you on a train, [F#]I’d never see you back again

1 CHORUS
[A]'cause you[E] were leaving,[D] I couldn't fathom why
[A]and the mo[E]on was a slice of lemon [D]in a gin and tonic sky
gin and tonic sky

[F#]well I put you on a train, [E]you should have heard the engines laughter
[D]saying' "I'm takin' her away and[F#] don't come running after"
[F#]you gave me one last cold kiss, [E]colder than steel
[D]this would be the last time
[A]and my tears were like [E]vinegar burning in my eyes,
[D]burning in my eyes

1 CHORUS

2 CHORUS
Please swear you won't take her from me now…
And I always said train stations gave me a lonesome feeling
'cause from someone somewhere they were stealing, stealing
na na na na na, na na na

and to hear the trains arms a violently pumping
and a little ruby heart inside me a thumping,
I was my own man now, a soldier on a battle field,
A grain of sand on a gold dust beach,
A one man band with an empty open hand,
A one man band with an empty open hand

1 CHORUS(x2)

Gin and tonic sky, gin and tonic sky,
Gin and tonic sky, gin and tonic sky
Sky oh! Gin and tonic sky
