Jimmie Standing In The Rain
Composição de (Elvis Costello)
verse 1: 
C#m           Gdim 
Third-class ticket in his pocket 
D#m                    Adim 
Punching out the shadows underneath the sockets 
C#m                       G#                  C#m 
Tweed coat turned up against the fog 
...                            Ddim 
Slow coaches rolling o'er the moor 
F#m                                                               G# 
Between the very memory and approaches of war 

Prehorus 1: 
C#m                      F#m 
Stale bread curling on a luncheon counter 
C#m                          F#m 
Loose change lonely, not the right amount 



[Refrão]
C#m F#m Forgotten man of an indifferent nation C#m F#m Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station C#m Gdim Somebody's calling you again D#m Adim The sky is falling ... C#m F#m Jimmie's standing in the rain C#m verse 2: C#m Gdim Nobody wants to buy D#m Adim a counterfeited prairie lullaby C#m G# C#m In a colliery town ... Ddim The hip flask and fumbled skein F#m G# Of some stage door Josephine is all he'll get now PreChorus 2: C#m F#m Eyes going in and out of focus C#m F#m Mild and bitter from tuberculosis

C#m F#m Forgotten man, indifferent nation C#m F#m Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station C#m Gdim Somebody's calling you again D#m Adim The sky is falling ... C#m F#m Jimmie's standing in the rain C#m F#m C#m Bridge: E Her soft breath was gentle on his neck ... C#m G# C#m If he could choose the time to die ... G# Then he would come and go like this C#m F#m C#m Underneath a painted sky E G#7/D# C#m She woke up and called him "Charlie" by mistake ... F#m C#m And then in shame began to cry E Tarnished silver band peels off a phrase G#7/D# And then warms their hands around the brazier

C#m F#m Forgotten man, indifferent nation C#m F#m Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station C#m Gdim Somebody's calling you again D#m Adim It's finally dawning ... C#m F#m Jimmie's standing in the rain C#m F#m C#m F#m C#m verse 4: (played sparsely) C#m Gdim Brilliantine glistening D#m Adim Your soft plaintive whistling C#m G# C#m And your wan wandering smile Ddim Died down at The Hippodrome F#m Now you're walking off to jeers, E Fdim the lonely sound of jingling spurs, F#m B G# The "toodle-oos" and "Oh, my dears" down at The Argyle PreChorus 3: C#m F#m Vile vaudevillians applaud sobriety C#m F#m There's no place for a half-cut cowboy in polite society
