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