Intro
A
[VERSE 1:]
E A E
I was born in the shadow of a Fairfield crane
Bm D A
And the blast of a freighter's horn
E D A
Was the very first sound that reached my ears
Bm D E
On the morning I was born
Bm
As I lay and I listened to the shipyard sounds
D E A
Coming out of the unknown
E D A
I was lulled to sleep by a mother tongue
Bm D E
That was to be my own
[VERSE 2:]
A E
Before I grew to one year old
Bm D A
I heard the sirens scream
E D A
As a city watched in the blacked-out night
Bm D E
F# wandering searchlight beam
Bm
And then one day I awoke and rose
D E A
To my first day of peace
E D A
And I learned that the battle to stay alive
Bm D E
Was never going to cease
[VERSE 3:]
A E
And I sat in the school from nine to four
Bm D A
And I dreamed of the world outside
E D A
Where the riveters and the platers watch
Bm D E
Their ships slip to the Clyde
Bm
Where the girls are placing stone on stone
D E A
And can watch his Labourer's Row
E D A
My time will come to walk with them
Bm D E
In the land I love to know
[VERSE 4:]
A E
And then one day when they set me free
Bm D A
I'll be walking like a man
E D A
Wi' my purses weighted in my boots
Bm D E
In the shadow o'er the clan
Bm
And the oil and the grease will stain my skin
D E A
Forever on my hands
E D A
F# living sign that I've been set free
Bm D E
That I've become a man
