Intro
Bm D Bm D G D F#m Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm
When the signals were green did you sit by the line
Em A A/A#
And watch for the fire in the sky
Bm
Then a scream and a roar and the shivering ground
Bm F#m Bm
And old Oliver Cromwell goes by
D G
Did you fancy your hand at the throttle and brake
D Bm
With the steam driven into your soul
D G
Or to stand with the driving wheels under your feet
D A Bm
And shovel a mountain of coal
[Interlude]
Bm D Bm D G D F#m Bm
[Verse 2]
Bm
Well they've silenced the whistle; the coal is all burned
Bm Em A A/A#
And they've buried the ashes for good
Bm
They've torn up the loop, and there's only a scar
Bm F#m Bm
To show where the water-crane stood
D G
But the birch and the elder still follow the track
D Bm
Standing black in the smoke and the rain
D G
And the poor little sheep with the smouldering back
D A Bm
Runs away at the sound of a train
[Interlude]
Bm D Bm D G D F#m Bm
[Verse 3]
Bm
O Britannias and Jubillees, Compounds and Crabs
Bm Em A A/A#
Have been taken away from the shed
Bm
And along with the clipper, the coach and the cab
Bm F#m Bm
They speak of an age that is dead
D G
For some are away to be mounted and stuffed
D Bm
While others are butchered and sold
D G
And the steamraiser's gone for the very last time
D A Bm
And his brazier's broken and cold
[Interlude]
Bm D Bm D G D F#m Bm
[Verse 4]
Bm
Well I've given me kettle and me old tin can
Bm Em A A/A#
To a lad for a souvenir
Bm
And I'd trade in me shovel for twenty fags
Bm F#m Bm
Or the price of a bottle of beer
D G
For the Scotsman has come to the end of his run
D Bm
And Mallard is cold as the stone
D G
The story is over, the giants are dead
D A Bm
And the jackals are picking the bones
[Outro]
Bm D A Am
