Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh
[Verse A-1]
A F#m
For many, many years, I don't know just how long
D A
Two Harbors was a booming railroad town
F#m
But '63 brought misery
D A
And the town is black with mourn
[Verse A-2]
F#m
The great iron horse no more will trail
D A
That straight and lonesome steel rail
F#m
Well I sat and cried the day the railroad died
D E A
Oh lord, what will I do?
[Verse B-1]
D A
The hoghead ran that iron horse,
E A
And lord, he ran her hard
D A
She hauled those ore cars from the range
Bm E
Into the railroad yard
[Verse A-3]
A F#m
The tallow pot, he sweat and fed
D A
That demon coal and more
F#m
She needed fuel, and fire and steam,
D E A
To haul that iron ore.
[Verse B-2]
D A
The mallet finally came to rest
E A
Inside the railroad shop
D A
Nut splitters took good care of her
Bm E
Amidst the laugh and talk
[Verse A-4]
A F#m
Of men with pride who took their work
D A
And did it fast and well
F#m
No longer does the din ring out
D E A
Since that black day of hell
[Verse B-3]
D A
The slings of slag john steel rail
E A
Won't crack the aching back
D A
Those gandy dancers who used to lay
Bm E
The glisten railroad tracks
[Verse A-5]
A F#m
My kith and kin were railroad folks
D A
But now our town's in dread
F#m
I tell you true, I don't know what I'll do
D E A
The railroad is dead
[Verse B-4]
D A
No more to laugh or work with ore
E A
How long can I be brave?
D A
The legend of the railroad
Bm E
Has settled in the grave
[Verse A-6]
A F#m
That was my life and now it's spent
D A
The company said to spare expense
A F#m
Well, I sat and cried the day the railroad doed
D E A
Oh lord, what will I do?
[Outro]
