[Verse A-1]
F# D#m
For many, many years, I don't know just how long
B F#
Two Harbors was a booming railroad town
D#m
But '63 brought misery
B F#
And the town is black with mourn
[Verse A-2]
D#m
The great iron horse no more will trail
B F#
That straight and lonesome steel rail
D#m
Well I sat and cried the day the railroad died
B C# F#
Oh lord, what will I do?
[Verse B-1]
B F#
The hoghead ran that iron horse,
C# F#
And lord, he ran her hard
B F#
She hauled those ore cars from the range
G#m C#
Into the railroad yard
[Verse A-3]
F# D#m
The tallow pot, he sweat and fed
B F#
That demon coal and more
D#m
She needed fuel, and fire and steam,
B C# F#
To haul that iron ore.
[Verse B-2]
B F#
The mallet finally came to rest
C# F#
Inside the railroad shop
B F#
Nut splitters took good care of her
G#m C#
Amidst the laugh and talk
[Verse A-4]
F# D#m
Of men with pride who took their work
B F#
And did it fast and well
D#m
No longer does the din ring out
B C# F#
Since that black day of hell
[Verse B-3]

The slings of slag john steel rail
C# F#
Won't crack the aching back

Those gandy dancers who used to lay
G#m C#
The glisten railroad tracks
[Verse A-5]

My kith and kin were railroad folks
B F#
But now our town's in dread
D#m
I tell you true, I don't know what I'll do
B C# F#
The railroad is dead
[Verse B-4]

No more to laugh or work with ore

How long can I be brave?

The legend of the railroad
G#m C#
Has settled in the grave
[Verse A-6]
F# D#m
That was my life and now it's spent

The company said to spare expense

B C# F#
Oh lord, what will I do?
