STORNOWAY - BOATS AND TRAINS

I took took these chords from a live video I found on youtube. I think its mostly
ok but I'm pretty sure on the album the A's are Abars as well and I missed a
variation around the F#m, let me know if you have any ideas!

		E
Waiting for a train
	 A 	     F#m     Abar   E  
Going nowhere in a nowhere station
		
Staying up last night 
       A              F#m        Abar    E
Going nowhere with my trains of thought

Sleeping with your boy
       F#m          Abar   
Going nowhere in a long distance relation
E
Blinded of your senses
        F#m     
By the fear of unrequited love
F#m       Abar   C#m
Once more I woke up in the moonlight
F#m       Abar      C#m                  Ebar C#m        
Once more our paths crossed through the night
F#m                Abar
And a moment's hesitation
     C#m        Ebar C#m
Your silent invocation
F#m                      Abar
But you shielded me from your glow
       C#m               Ebar C#m
Like a moth against your window
F#m         Abar   C#m         Abar
And I'm too shy to stop you in your tracks
F#m      Abar            E
Oh you leave me in the dark

               E
Drifting in my boat 
        A             F#m   Abar    E
Going nowhere with my aspirations
                      
You and me connected 
   A              F#m       Abar     E
Unexpected in our drifting thoughts

But you still see him
          F#m           Abar                 E
And I am sinking in the storm of separation

Blinded of my senses
        F#m          B7
By the fear of unrequited love

BRIDGE:
Abm C#m F#m Abar Abm C#m F#m Abar Abm C#m
         
F#m         Abar   C#m        Ebar C#m
Once more I woke up in the moonlight
F#m       Abar      C#m                  Ebar C#m        
Twice more our paths crossed through the night
F#m                Abar
And a moment's hesitation
     C#m        Ebar C#m
Your silent invocation
F#m                      Abar
But you shielded me from your glow
       C#m               Ebar C#m
Like a moth against your window
F#m         Abar   C#m         Abar
And I'm too shy to stop you in your tracks
F#m      Abar            C#m Ebar
Oh you leave me in the dark again
    F#m     Abar
And I need someone
    C#m          Abar
To stop me from drifting
F#m                    Abar        E
It's getting late to be travelling
                    E
Destined to go nowhere
        A         F#m    Abar  E
By the fear of unrequited love
