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