In a white room with black curtains....
Thanks to whoever can help!

[Wheels of Fire - In the Studio:]
In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawn-light smiles on you leaving, my contentment.
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
[Live Cream Vol. 2:]
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah
In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
And I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
As I walked in such a bad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own needs just beginning.
And I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgovern.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
And I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah

White Room
- written by Jack Bruce and Pete Brown
- as recorded by Cream
In the white room with black curtains in the stations
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses, rundown moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on your leaving my contentment
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
As I walked out felt my whole need just beginning
I'll wait in the queue when the train's come back
Wait here for you where the shadows run from themselves
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation from the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves

Repeat main riff twice for each line of the verses:
[D] [D] [C] [C] [G/B] [G/B] [Bb] [C]

Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.
I'll [C] wait in this [G] place where the [Bb] sun never [A] shines;
[C] Wait in this [G] place where the [Bb] shadows [C] run from [D]
themselves.
You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.
I'll [C] wait in the [G] queue when the [Bb] trains come [A] back;

She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
I'll [C] sleep in this [G] place with the [Bb] lonely [A] crowd;
[C] Lie in the [G] dark where the [Bb] shadows [C] run from [D] themselves.
