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