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