[Verse 1]
D A7 D
We went to the room and we bolted the door,
E A7
The bass from the jukebox was coming through the floor,
D A7 D G D Dsus D Dsus D
And out through the walls we could still hear the roar of the trains.
D A7 D
Was this all the comfort we got for our sins?
E A7
No candles, no waiters, no soft violins?
D A7 D G D Dsus D
A dirty electric convector plugged into the mains.
[Chorus]
D Em D A7 A Bm A7 D
I had wanted much more for the first night with you,
A7 D7 G G D A D
But the railway hotel was the best I could do.
D Em D A7 A Bm A7 D
I knew the Savoy would have suited you well,
A7 D7 G G D
But the best I could do was the railway hotel.

[Verse 2]
D A7 D
Away in the sky were the lights of a jet,
E A7
Burning in the night like a slow cigarette.
D A7 D G D Dsus D Dsus D
The lamp in the street threw a soft silhouette on the wall.
D A7 D
And though it was crumbling and rundown and dead
E A7
A chair and a sink and an old single bed,
D A7 D G D Dsus D
The love we began and the things that we said, I recall.
[Chorus]
D Em D A7 A Bm A7 D
I had wanted much more for the first night with you,
A7 D7 G G D A D
But the railway hotel was the best I could do.
D Em D A7 A Bm A7 D
I knew the Savoy would have suited you well,
A7 D7 G G D
But the best I could do was the railway hotel.
