E  B  A    F#

[Verse 1]
                 B
Once I heard the whistle
                            F#
Of a mournful midnight train
                B
Sing a little duet
                        F#
With a siren in the rain
                    B
The sang about true love
                                 F#
Between the damned and the devout
                     B
And right then for a moment
                    F#
The fire in me blew out

[Bridge]
A           B     E          B                C#m
  And for a moment I felt my shackled heart unchained

[Chorus]
       F#          B
It was right then, instant liberation
      F#         B
It was not long, but I was set free
       F#      B                            F#
It was release, for a moment love let go of me

[Verse 2]
E
  Once I saw the moon rise
                        F#
As the sun climbed into bed
     E
They both shone on each other
                          F#
'Til the sun blushed ruby red
E
  And then a pair of swallows
                      F#
Silhouetted cross its face
    E
And my heart pirouetted
                               F#
Through the twilight with their grace

[Bridge]
A           B     E                       C#m
  And for a moment I was not a prisoner of   love

[Chorus]
      F#         B
It was right then, a little liberation
      F#         B
It was so quick, but I was set free
      F#       B                            F#
It was release, for a moment love let go of me

[Interlude]
A B E   F#

[Chorus]
      F#         B
It was right then, a little liberation
      F#         B
It was not long, but I was set free
      F#       B                            F#
It was release, for a moment love let go of me
            B               F#
For a moment love let go of me
