E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

I've come back this morning to where I first came alive

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

Here within this terminal where the buses arrive

A#m/-5 AM7

I was a commuter on the 804

A#m/-5 B

Worked on a computer on the 19th floor and

E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

You came down the aisle of the bus and you sat by my side

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

Shoulder up to shoulder we shared that 9 o'clock ride

A#m/-5 AM7

Oh my heart was screaming as you left your seat

A#m/-5 B

Following your movements I was at your feet and

EM7 C#m7 F#m Gm

Oh down into the terminal both of us smiled

G#m C#m F#m - G#m F#m - B

So we entered the terminal just as she smiled

E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

Won't you leave out work today - you ask of me then

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

So I phoned in sick on the way to the home of a friend

A#m/-5 AM7

We were all alone from 10 A.M. till three

A#m/-5 B

Really thought the fire had gone out of me but

E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

You awoke the sleep of my life from gray into red

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

Made the weary wonder of Wall Street rise from the dead

A#m/-5 AM7

Could have had the fun of my entire life

A#m/-5 B

But I have to get home to the kids and the wife and

EM7 C#m7 F#m Gm

So I left for the terminal where I began

G#m C#m F#m - G#m F#m - B

Baby no, I wouldn't have left if I'd been half a man

E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

So here I am this morning where love had asked for the dance

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

Here within this terminal where I passed on a chance

A#m/-5 AM7

Lord I'll never find her through I've truly tried

A#m/-5 B

Probably she's found another bus to ride and

E C#m7 F#m9 - F#m

I am now about to begin the last of my days

G#/D# G# C#m (C#m - B - A#m/-5)

I'm within what others would call a terminal face

A#m/-5 AM7

I myself can only say it's livin dead

A#m/-5 B EM7

Ridin to the office with the song in my head that goes

C#m7 F#m Gm G#m

La da da da da da da da da da and you know it grows

C#m F#m - G#m F#m - B

La da da da da da da da da da

EM7 C#m7 F#m Gm G#m

Ohh La da da da da da da da da da Ohh

C#m F#m - G#m F#m - B

La da da da da da da da da da

EM7 C#m7 F#m Gm

Ohh La da da da da da da da da da da da (Fade Out)
