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