Thomas Alan Waits (7 de dezembro de 1949) é um músico, instrumentista, compositor, cantor e actor norte-americano. Sua voz grossa e rouca e suas letras por vezes esquisitas e intrigantes, marcam a personalidade de sua música. Sendo ativo por mais de quatro décadas, Waits possuí uma considerável obra, constituída de quase 30 álbuns (incluindo álbuns de estúdio, compilações e álbuns ao vivo), e mais de 50 participações diretas (como ator) e indiretas (compondo trilhas sonoras) em filmes.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

(Original Key: Eb)
[Intro]
D, GA (x2)
[Verse 1]
DGAD Outside, a-nother yellow moon, GA Has punched a hole in the night-time, yes. DGAD I climb through the window and down to the street, GA I'm shining like a new dime.
[Bridge 1]
GA The downtown trains are full, GA With all of those Brooklyn girls. GA They try so hard to break out of their little worlds.
[Verse 2]
DGAD Well, you wave your hand and they scatter like crows, GAD They have nothing that will ever capture your heart. GAD They're just thorns, without the rose; GA Be careful of them in the dark.
[Bridge 2]
GAGA Oh, if I was the one, you chose to be your only one. GA Oh baby, can't you hear me now? Can't you hear me now?
[Chorus 1]
DGA Will I see you to-night, DGA On a downtown train? DGEmA Every night it's just the same; you leave me lonely, now.
[Verse 3]
DGAD I know your window and I know it's late, GA I know your stairs and your doorway. DGAD I walk down your street and past your gate, GA I stand by the light at the four-way.
[Bridge 3]
GA You watch them as they fall, GA Oh baby, they all have heart-attacks. GA They stay at the carnival but they'll never win you back.
[Chorus 2]
DGA Will I see you to-night, DGA On a downtown train? DGEmA Where every night, every night, it's just the same, oh baby...
DGA Will I see you to-night, DGA On a downtown train? DGEmA All of my dreams, they fall like rain, oh baby, on a downtown train.
[Interlude]
DG, DA, DG, A (x2)
[Chorus 3]
DGA Will I see you to-night, DGA On a downtown train? DGEmA Where every night, every night, it's just the same, oh baby...
DGA Will I see you to-night, DGA On a downtown train? DGEmA All of my dreams, they fall like rain, oh baby, on a downtown train.
[Coda]
DGADGAD All on a downtown train, all on a downtown train. GADGAD All on a downtown train, a downtown train.
